    They are driver duties which operate at peak time only when timetable frequency increases and there's a greater demand for capacity on a particular route/corridor. They also operate some Xpresso routes. The term "Euro" refers to the funding provided by the EU to purchase the vehicles.

    Depending on the shift, a typical euro driver will operate one or two journeys in the morning peak and return to the depot around 10/11am. They then take up their second part of the shift in the evening peak, between 4 and 7pm. Many euro drivers work Monday to Friday only. Their average shift is 7.5 hours.
