Well, I thought I'd share the update with everyone on here. I called up a few days ago and asked for an update on the Bedford courses. I was told that they are currently concentrating on the depots further south (Three Bridges etc) and that there are no plans for any Bedford courses until at...

Exactly my thoughts! I'm in Desborough, so a stones throw from you dr1323! You can't really get much further north than where we are without going over the 1 hour mark. Market Harbourough is about as far north as you can get within the hour, depending which site you use for directions. I don't...

Well, I'm 55 minutes drive north of Bedford. I guess that puts me to the back of the already long queue! We're probably reading too much into this anyway. The job specification said within 60 mins drive from the depot and I'm certain we wouldn't have got this far if it was going to be a problem.

I had the email to say that I had passed stage 2 with GTR almost 3 weeks ago. I have applied for Bedford. How long has it taken for DM interview letters to come through to people? I also read on here that GTR was doing GN DM interviews before TL, can anyone shed any more light on that? I'm very...
