Hello to you guys currently with Exeter depot at GWR! Are you back into training now? If so how long is it until your course finishes? I'm in the talent pool for Exeter and probably (if lucky) wont get the call for some time yet :(

Hi Lee no not back yet. Still competing a TOC trial and assessing this, as well how many DIs are willing to take a trainee on. May know a bit more in a couple of weeks. If all goes well then the trainees with most handling hours should return September time. What is for sure is that its going to be a slow integration back into training.

How is the next lockdown affecting the current driver training? Are you having to stop training again? ‍♂️

That's good to hear! Still waiting here from the 2019/2020 talent pool for Exeter :)

In that they are still advertising for Qualified drivers for Exeter, amoung others, there's obviously viewed to be a future need, so that can only be positive. I'm one of 6 trainees and a few qualified my depot took in the past year and a bit. Fingers crossed for you there's positive news coming when the world starts to regain some kind of normaility
