Where a shunter can go next
5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a shunter already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.
Shunters move shunting units with or without wagons or groups of wagons in order to build trains. They manage the driving of locomotives and are involved in switching wagons, making or splitting up trains in shunting yards or sidings. They operate according to the technical features, such as controlling movement via a remote control device.

How these figures were compiled
Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a shunter already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
