Hi Liquid1904, I used to be a copper and my shoulder number was 1904! Now a driver for AGA and look to be honest the training wages are crap and I had kids, had to relocate etc.. but now I'm qualified and on full wages plus overtime, I earn twice as much as a fully established copper does and...

Hi just wondering where you got this info from? Was it on the application form? thanks

If you're really bored one day you could take a trip up and down the route you will be driving on making a note of stations. You're going to have to learn those so doing them earlier than later won't be any harm. I also agree with learning the phonetic alphabet. That's something you'll need...

Thanks for that Mintona!

Hi Guys and Gals, Just doing a bit of research for Penzance. I (and the wife) quite fancy it (and even though the routes and diagrams are fairly 'limited' I'd still be happy doing it) What I don't want to do is put an app in and then wait for 12 months while they decide what to do. I've got...

I had that very interview about a year ago and I can't remember them asking questions like that mate. more about you and what you have done etc. plus a bit about the company ie what abellio do.

Hi Im a trainee driver and I'd love to know if there is a Rules question and answer database that you can access for revision purposes. I know we all have a rule book, and you definitely need to refer to it from time to time, but I think I would find it a big help if I could revise in small...

I imagine you would hear about your app through other channels, being internal, would you not pr?

Hi Guys, does anyone know where you do the training ? Is it a centralised training school or straight to your depot of choice?

Whatever gave you that idea?:wink: Good luck with your apps, where have you applied for so far?
