Really...?
I think that you will find that train drivers get paid more than many pilots and the railway companies pay for their training.

And if JC ever manages to renationalise the railways the pay will be even better.

For those who think I am joking here are a few examples:

Virgin Trains average £61246

London Underground £49169

National average £47705

I know or at least one full qualified ATPL holder who gave some serious thought to becoming a train driver.
