I trained all my new team members remotely by:

1. Checking in on them often to make sure they weren't blocked.

2. Screensharing or pair programming (one on one) to teach them necessary skills.

3. Making it 100% clear that they could reach out to me or another senior team member at any time for help - if we're too busy we'll just respond later.

Works quite well as long as your senior engineers aren't overworked and can actually dedicate some time to bringing juniors up to speed.
