How to become a machinist, "Peregrine"
If your working day begins with the phrase: "Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen! On behalf of JSC "Russian Railways" I and our crew will welcome you on board the train "Sapsan", - that means you - the driver of the fastest train in Russia. And your job - every day "fly", without looking up from the earth: for in some areas between St. Petersburg and Moscow are part of a speed comparable to the speed of a modern airliner taking off. And certainly nowhere in the "Sapsan" does not find a better view from the window than in the cab. Tickets are not sold there, but you can try to make the cab driver their workplace.
1) Experience - not less than 5 years, class - not below the 2nd
Poet can you not be, but the engineer be required. And not below 2nd class - in order to get to the "Sapsan". For those who are far from railways, explain: To get a Class 2 train driver should be to work for 3 years. The countdown starts from the 4th class, which allows you to control locomotives and electric trains. In the case of "Peregrine Falcon", in addition to high-end, and need to have more experience behind them - at least 5 years.
2) Health - as the astronauts
The path to the driver's seat is through a medical examination. The requirements for the physical state of the candidates - severe. Future machinists eyes tested (it must be one hundred percent), hearing, cardiovascular system and other vital organs. Yet to psychological testing to determine whether a candidate is attentive, whether it is ready to be responsible for the lives of hundreds of people. And most importantly - no bad habits: in the "Sapsan" is not even a smoke machine operators!

3) Spik Inglish!
Machinists "Peregrine Falcon" - only on domestic trains with passengers who speak English. Therefore, in an interview at the future candidates should check his basic knowledge. Fluency, of course, no one needs, but also expressions of popular and well-known words of Hollywood movies will not be able to restrict.
4) "Driving Licence" in the "Sapsan»
One professional education (in Moscow, for example, drivers are taught in the Railway College №52 Moscow College or rail transport) is not enough. We need to get more special certificate which gives the right to manage the "peregrine falcon". The first new train drivers for Russian trains were trained in Germany by Siemens. But almost a year ago such courses appeared in Russia: February 1, 2010 in St. Petersburg opened a training center for locomotive crews where train drivers and train future. First, they work out the theory and practice on the simulator "Peregrine Falcon" in the center, then fix the knowledge on this train depot "Metallostroy" where registered the fastest train in Russia.
5) Code of Honor
Machinist born first, and then become. This truth is also true for drivers of "Peregrine Falcon". Work on high-speed trains only the best footage: machinists St. Petersburg host site Moscow and Gorky JD However, to sit "behind the wheel" of the fastest train in Russia can be a normal driver, if he meets all the requirements. The main thing, as noted in the Northwest Directorate-speed communications to candidate machinists "Sapsan" not only knew all the instructions, but also knew how to intelligently and efficiently applied: at a speed exceeding 200 km / h is not much time to think.
