Lovely thanks for the information

Don’t suppose anyone has a copy of the roster for either Colchester or Cambridge depots? Would be greatly appreciated

I left southern last January having been there for about 3 years. I moved to LNER, and whilst the driving is better with less stopping the depot isn’t as good and the increased amount of nights shifts aren’t good. I don’t think you’ll ever find the “best” as they all have their pros and cons.

Thanks. Lot less nights than what I do at the moment

Hi, Does anyone know what the night work is like? And rough start and finish time? Cheers

5 years in the military, 5 years in the Met and been a train driver since 2014. The railway is full of ex military and police.

Yeah we started Monday. Induction week.

I’m a driver and I’m under 40

Cheers for the information. I don’t suppose anyone has a Kings cross drivers roster?

Hi, Offered a job with VTEC today for kings cross and was wondering if anyone is aware of the employee benefits? Not had much joy looking online. Thanks

3 a day.... everyday. Pretty much that way for the 2 years I’ve had my key. Now I know some people will say “well you get paid to drive a train” but trust me it gets very demoralising. Unfortunately at the moment with Southern, route learning is non existent and it’s pretty much the same at all...

I’m a Victoria driver for Southern. The main appeal is the start and finish times. Our earliest start is 0455 I believe but Norwood and selhurst have starts at around 0300 which is classed as an early. I commute about 30 minutes to get into work and it’s not a problem. The work is ok but prepare...

I've been given an assessment date but no details as far so I'd be very interested to know what to expect on the day

You've missed off the best TOC in the country..... Southern

Is there a link?
