I'm in a similar position. Passed stage 1 back in June last year and never been invited to stage 2. I've emailed twice and been told my application is still live, but they can't give me a date for the second stage. Not sure whether to reapply or not.

The computer tests and mmi

Just had an email to say I'm still on the list for stage 2 at some point. So there's still hope for those of us that completed stage 1 earlier this year.

I'd like to find a spot that's quiet to watch freight trains, ideally where I can easily park and walk to a secluded location. I don't want to be on a station platform or anywhere with loads of people. I have Peterborough and March as my two destinations. If anyone can suggest somewhere that...

Did anyone else hear any further or are all these applications dead now? I did email asking for an update and didn't get a response. Does anyone know an alternative email to contact?

No I haven't heard anything since the email confirming I had passed stage 1. I'll get in contact and see what they say.

Yeah same here. Passed stage 1 end of June then nothing. Looks like we're back to square one.

Glad I'm not the only one to think that! I've applied for Cambridge.

It's been a year or so since I last applied for a signaller position so my first go at the new application process. I enjoyed it all up until the final memory test. That was horrible. Just have to sit tight and keep everything crossed now.

Are any of these likely to be returning to Peterborough at any point? Just noticed they passed my workplace in Huntingdon yesterday and would have loved to catch a glimpse of them.

As much as this is a regrettable incident and I am glad there were no serious injuries I am enjoying the additional intermodal traffic passing my work near Huntingdon at the moment.

Hi all, there is a position with Network Rail I want to apply for which is listed on Indeed but not on the Network Rail external careers page. When I try to apply via Indeed and log in to my existing NR account it doesn't recognize my details (which I know to be correct). Does anyone know if the...
