i drive diggers for a living getting tickets costs quite a bit not sure about the road/rail machine's but that it has stricter training and testing
first you have to gain your red card and do a health n safety test normally costs around 400 pounds
when you get your red card you have to log about 500 hours in the log book they give you all with in a year ,then you can then go for your blue card that is nvq based training in a class room
this is around 400-800 pounds you then have 5 years to get 500 hours to hold on to your cards

this is one digger i drive
