    Glasgow Subway trains first in UK to run with no staff on board

    Would imagine he means from St George's cross into Cowcaddens. Very tight bend and adverse camber, train crawls along this bit. Another section is Shields Rd to Kinning Park which has a very short but rather steep incline, trains go pretty slow here also.

    Scotrail Trainee Drivers (Ongoing)

    I'm still under consideration. I know someone going through the process for another area of Scotrail in Glasgow and they have been told HR are mega short staffed due to holidays which is slowing everything down across all vacancies. True? No idea, but provides a glimmer of hope lol

    Glasgow Subway trains first in UK to run with no staff on board

    Current trains are ATO (when working) with the drivers doing the doors. Also manually driven in and out of the system. New trains have a temp drivers cab and will have a driver until platform doors are installed. They will be able to come out of the system unattended as well, only requiring...

    Telephone interview for FTPE - Advice

    You have about 20-30 mins call, in which they will explain the role, the purpose of this step of the recruitment process, the next step, etc etc. they are on strict time scales, so will probably interrupt repeatedly, clarifying what you have said, asking you to expand. It is only the 3...
