All the stations between Shenfield and Liverpool Street on GEML have these fences now. I think it's been a few weeks. No idea if there's any statistics since. I saw a poster saying they are looking into putting blue lights along the platform edges because it calms people. That seems a bit crazy!

Saw a very clean 156 at Marks Tey today with new logo.

Cheers! Interesting, on the intranet it doesn't mention Colchester drivers do Harwich. I didn't think diagrams were on the intranet, i've been snooping around it to get an idea of things even though i've only just done induction week :roll . Probably a few years before I leave the depot if the...

Okay when I said typical I didn't really mean typical :p. I'm just curious of the diagrams, especially for a Colchester based driver.. Although it'l be a few years before I get to that stage. David

That diagram posted earlier was really interesting.. Noone happens to have a typical shift for a GA driver/guard?

I can't believe I just finished my job! Friday is drawing closer and it's definitely like stepping into the unknown. I know i've always wanted this job but still change is quite scary. As long as there are great people around! I can't say I liked my previous job much but I loved the people I...

Makes you wonder what the next name will be..

But isn't that a nod to the GWR and GNR? It's not like Greater Anglia came from the fact it was the Great Anglia Railway.. If it was Greater Eastern then maybe. Does anyone even know the theory behind the name GREATER Anglia? All the other good names were used up previously? Just so you...

Definitely going to head there in April!

Had mine on Wednesday. Got missed call on Friday but followed up on Monday which confirmed the start date and that it's all good.. Still no contract but i'm thinking mine should be here tomorrow.

OO? wow. I wouldn't mind getting a few but not currently interested in the steam models. Wish you could see what's coming up.

Well I only just had the medical so I can understand they can't send contracts out until drug test comes back but i'd like to know for def which date it would be so I can hand in my notice and not be stressed about it :)

I wish I could be sure about the start date. I really want to hand my notice in!

About an hour, then 30 mins waiting around or a doctor to pretty much type something up and tell you what happens now. The hour contained having a wee. Colour blind test, eyesight test, hearing test, height and weight, ECG, A few simple movements for not even a minute, lots of questions (you...

I'm so so so so jealous. I really wanted to go to the special anniversary of Progress Reform gig but was working late :(. I've not really paid attention to them since after the first album as they seemed to lose the sound I really loved them for so those gigs would have been the perfect set!

Medical done! I'm done unless someone spiked my drinks with crack. Annoying having to wait for results as i'd rather be 100% sure before I hand in notice!

I was just thinking of posting :p. My medical is on the 19th! I was going to ask...Those who have had a medical what is the process once you leave? Do you get told if you're through (pending the drug testing) and then hear from GA? As a start date thrown around is 7th March I really should...

Ooh I'm 6'4 or 6'3 and half

Congrats to Kevin! I'm paranoid about my ears.. Other than that i'm sure i'm fine, unless theres a height limit ;)

No problems with hubby ears? Got told on the spot?
