Hi all, I am an active staff member with a FIP card (reduced rate travel) I will be going to Germany & Norway at some point this year and had some questions over the use of the card, DB is the more important one for me. I would like to know if I have to book my travel through bookmyrst.com or...

never even thought of that, ill look into it! cheers.

I did have that in mind, though i wasnt too sure if it was something that is done really, i was hoping to see if anyone knew any specific pcv places before i did that. my next step is to talk to my employer and see if i could use my garage as storage though i already know what the space is like...

This is my first time so im not too fussed about those things and can adjust depending on what people might be able to offer. Storage wise, it would ideally be in a secure area, I dont mind either open or closed. In terms of access, as i am a full time bus driver, i dont have alot of time so its...

Hello everyone! I was wondering if anyone here knew of anywhere that is north, north west or west of London, about 50 miles max out where i would be able to pay for storage for a dennis dart? I am aware of the Bromley Bus Preservation Group but just getting from my area to there is a near 90...

cheers for that!

Hi guys, just a quick question to see if anyone knows this one. Are we allowed to choose any family member living in the household for this pass or does it have to be a dependant as per NR? cheers!

Student, McDonald's, Volunteering work both railway and managerial and now finally onto a proper job in the railway. All of this and I'm only 17 so I'm quite pleased with myself tbh.

It's quite annoying to have to find staff at Harrow and Wealdstone. there is never any there. they are all in the information desk inside the gateline :/ oh well, luckily it will only be for this week.

Hi guys, Just a quick question. I attempted to use my GTR staff pass at Harrow and Wealdstone Station earlier today. The guy at the ticket office said that even though it is valid for the Southern services that go through there, as its underground gates, it won't let me though. I was just...

I'm 17, and my dream job is to work in the railway industry. I managed to successfully get a job with GTR and I didn't have everything in the desirable section but I gave it my all at the interviews and really sold myself. I'm sure you'll get an interview and when you do, just sell yourself and...

You'll be fine. I doubt you won't get to the interviews because of not holding a driving licence. bear in mind the list of desirable there is very small so I'd take it that they are pretty much just looking for the requirements.

What's the role you've applied for. I applied for a role at GTR, didn't have everything in the desirable section and just about met requirements and managed to bag the role so desirable isn't everything but I'd assume it probably depends highly on the role you've gone for. Either way, don't look...

The incident is truly sad and tragic as well as the report that details the causes. My thoughts are with the family and train driver. It just goes to show that there need to be more rigorous protection and safety procedures in place

Ah right, didn't know as I have no idea about those areas lol. Still, I think it would have just made sense to allow the travel, the passenger had a long night due to reasons out of his control.
