Thanks Yorkie, I tried that and got this. Is it worth me emailing their customer service?

Thanks Yorkie for the information, it’s a tricky one to suss out as we had no train running at all between Stamford to Peterborough due to cross country cancelling them all, so had no option but to get her to Peterborough in time to catch the connecting train to Edinburgh.

I’m after some help, my wife a ticket booked today to get from Stamford to Inverness for work. First Leg from Stamford to Peterborough at 0902 was cancelled and looks like no train ran for the rest of the day on this section due to flooding. (Crosscountry) Second leg from Peterborough to...

I have and I have been booked into a nice hotel for the 2 day induction starting tomorrow. Do you have your course induction tomorrow?

Hi Logic, I start signalling school on 27th. Have you had your hotel booking yet?

Hi Mac, you’ll be looking at 300% uplift on Christmas and Boxing Day which is triple time your standard rate. Hope this helps.

Hi Cleanshirt, I’m due to start training in York on 17th February. How about you?

I start at Signalling school in February, I started work at the beginning of November and I’m currently covering as a crossing keeper. Loving the job and there’s a lot of good eggs here too!

Thanks, its the Grade 3 Oakham relief role. Can't wait to get started and go to Signalling school.

Hey guys, I was recently informed that I was successful in my application and offered the role. It’s still sinking in but I’m completely over the moon about it. Currently I am awaiting an email from HR and hopefully an official start date for Signalling school.

Ok so it sounds like your score on the SJT is not as high as others who’ve applied even though you’ve reached the required benchmark. Just hang in there and keep at it mate. I’ve got my fingers crossed for you.

Thanks, what part are you getting up to assessment wise as I might be able to help or give some advice to get you in the running?

Hi Chaz, this is my first Interview and only role I’ve applied for so far so we’ll see.

Just got back from my interview in Leicester, I think it went ok. I did all the reading, NTS and learnt the Safety vision section but it always boils down to how you perform on the day. I always feel like I bumbling in interviews but put that down to nerves no matter how much I prepare.

Thanks for the pointers, I'll brush up on these as best as I can.....not my strong point as the questions can be misinterpreted/mind goes blank due to nerves. I've applied for the Oakham relief signallers role and was wondering what size area I'd potentially be covering?
