Is being a crossrail driver harder or does it pay significantly less than
elsewhere? Thats a genuine question, I have no idea.


One obvious feature (that also applies to HEx, C2C and Island Line) is a
relatively limited amount of route and traction knowledge required.


Thats probably a bonus - less learning.

On the other hand, it's going to be pretty boring (like the Victoria
Line or Waterloo and City).


Most of its above ground. But I suspect any driving job gets boring after
a while regardless of the vehicle, even flying a plane.
