Can anyone tell me if Tweedbank is a depot or just a station. Thanks

I work part time now as opposed to full time. I do same 3 shifts 3x10hrs. I think depends on your toc and wether it fits in with their business plan etc as to getting an agreement from them

Thanks for all the kind words and replys guys. I'm sure I'll be back at it soon

My preference is to return, but currently have days when I struggle to face it. I've been surprised by my reaction to all this, it's not how I seen myself dealing with an incident like this..

I am a driver currently off sick due to a fatality. It's been 6 months now and after councilling etc I find myself in the position of deciding whether to go back into the driving seat or not. The Toc I work for have been great regarding support etc, and redeployment is also an option. I love...

And what options are available if a driver feels they are unable to return to driving...

I'm That's a fairly good breakdown of both sides of the coin. I'm thinking of dropping to 30 hrs. It is health related, plus a lifetime of shifts has burnt me out I think.

Just wondering if there are any part time drivers on here at all. Pros and cons?

Yep, your right...sorry Bathgate scotrail Yoker scotrail

Can anyone tell me what sort of shifts are worked as a depot yard shunter? Thanks

1st time for me. Lucky I guess, however I had the transferable skills that I new would appeal. 20 years working in control room of a secure hospital. Thinking on my feet, dealing with suicide, safety critical comms etc.... But still a lot of luck

Yes ...thanks for that- i work this shift pattern at my depot- im just considering a transfer and would like to know for sure the routes etc covered. Cheers
