I definitely agree especially with the number of 360 units being stabled at Cricklewood and Kettering now. But then again it’s not surprising. It would even be nice to see an EMR Uniform.
There’s no excuse why they can’t atleast refurb the majority of these 360s before sending them into passenger service. With everything pushed back until May 2021 the majority of them could easily be repainted.
Hello there,
I hope you don't mind but I was just reading through the messages on the MTR Crossrail thread and noticed a few of your positive messages. I'm actually interested in applying for the Driver team leader role, and currently have over 5years driving experience working for LOROL...
Hey I just had a quick question regarding being a train driver and driving coaches a few times a month. Do you need to notify the company you work for or need to mention working casually on the side?

That's such a negative statement - It's not only freight drivers who are being made redundant in the UK let alone around the world. Plus both roles involve two different aspects of the job. If I was a lorry driver and got made redundant doesn't mean bus compnies should automatically open there...
That's a really good response. I've been through the whole process and thought I failed at this stage, but the main thing is to give responses on your current role, even if it means bending the truth aslong as you know how to handle these situations when they arise it counts for something. What...
Hello there,
Sorry about the late response to your message, I hope everything has gone well for you throughout the recruitment process.
Please do let me know

Part 1: Involved Group bourdon test and the faulty analysis test
If you pass that then the next stage is;
Part 2: Listening to an audio...
Hi there,
Funny enough, my results were given to me the other way round. I recieved my results for the assessments via email and Managers interview via telephone which I passed...
I had the interview on Friday and they called me on the Monday to congratulate me:-)
Hi, I had also applied in May and have been through the whole assessment process. Just had my managers interview last friday and got a call today, to say i've been successful.:D
Maybe they had a high volume of applicants to siff through, or probably can only have a limited amount of people...
Hi there,
I have recently completed all the assessments and managers interview and have thankfully passed all stages:)
