No you get it after induction, usually on the Friday.

I went for the most expensive £59.99 boots and they are fine, you can choose any of them as they are all to safety standard I believe. Also with the polo shirts I ordered 3 and got a mix of the other shirts, wish I got a couple more of the polo's through as they are what I wear everyday now.

Nice one mate, glad you got the call. I started this week and Hitchin is down as my depot. Main thing is it's on the GN side.

No im in Cambridgeshire.

Thanks ninhog I will certainly take advantage of the travel benefits! Yes I'm currently in the Fire Service and after 18 years I'm ready for a change! Cheers for the insight

Great post, I start my induction at Kentish Town on the 27th so thank you for the heads up of what to expect.

Applied October 2015, had medical early March last year and now starting on the 27th this month didn't need another medical. No idea how it all works, feel lucky to get the offer.

Nice one, see you on the 27th!

Which depot are you down for?

Cheers mate, looking forward to starting!

Think I'm on the same course, yes I completed the reference's email. I didn't get any response to confirm.

I don't remember doing a test when I applied back in October 2015. If you have to do a test now I would of thought it's a situational judgement test, google it to get a heads up.

I've just been given a trainee position for GN and I'm out of their application criteria. I ignored that and applied anyway, lucky I did!

They will place you according to where you live as long as it's reasonable.

Yes 27th March, thank you and good luck to you to BaGz1885.

Thanks rhysa85, good info to have.

Free travel from the 27th, its 4 days induction at Kentish Town. Not sure where after that.

Nice one mate, hopefully I see you at Kentish Town on the 27th :)

It's fine I can make it work at any GN depot, I've potentially got 27 years of train driving ahead of me so who knows where I will end up!

That's fine, cheers mate. Eventually I would like Peterborough or Cambridge.
