Best thing for the St Albans branch is to convert it tbh. A long way off though. The list seems to be post hoc cobbled in order to take the heat off the gummint in regards to wandering SPADS and is basically incoherent.

The water traffic which did use the branch was diverted to DIRFT. So it is still on the railway.

That is the agreed regulation policy between TOCS/NR; nothing to do with how the box regulates.

At the risk of repeating myself from lots of pages back - I know for new applicants it is frustrating how slow the process is (believe me for internal applicants it is equally as slow) but stop wasting your own time and screwing your mental health obsessively checking emails after the various...

What's the point?

I chucked my late turn Sundays (We work 8hr Sunday turns...yeah I know) in this year. Take the pay cut and enjoy a day off.

I am in the wrong 'box then...

To answer a question which has been circulated on here - all NR staff on the Wessex route get the "free travel" card within the SWR area. That includes new entrant signallers. Unprotected NR staff on the Western AIUI get the equivalent of BR boxes, so a limited amount of free travel within the...

Google Network Rail Control periods and then read the plans. That will give you an idea of indicative box closure dates.

Not correct at all but totally off topic for this thread.

Stick a flag on it and people swallow any old rubbish.

I would imagine RSK will go up the ladder due to the increased "workload". Cheers for the info..

Yeah. Lock, stock and barrel from next November.

The Cornish boxes are PZ (4 - lever frame working electric lights); St Erth 4 (frame); Roskear - was switches on the blockshelf (lol) but now a panel and I think is now a Gd3; Truro (frame - very busy) Gd4; Par (frame/panel for Burngullow - Probus) 4; St Blazey (frame - token is a 2?)...

They have switched to a 10hr turn now I think..

Writing your own bespoke standards in an era where the supply chain crosses the continent is beyond dumb, will push additional cost onto the customer and is totally the opposite of the global free trading blah blah nonsense. The EU in any trade deals as one of the three major standards writers...

I think some folk on here are in danger of reading through. The recruitment is a 4 stage process in effect: 1. Psychometric testing 2. Interview 3. Signalling School 4. Passing out the 'box. As mentioned above there are a series of questions in order to pass stage 1; they are looking to test...

The Rule Book can be found on the RSSB website: https://www.rssb.co.uk/standards-and-the-rail-industry/standards-explained/national-operations-publications I would advise you NOT to read the rule book if you are a new entrant into the railway and wish to join the grade, contrary to the advice...

West Cornwall is moving to 12hr turns from January AIUI. Factor that into your calculations re: Par. Liskeard and Par have differing hiring managers. Not sure what you mean re Benefits. Par is a nice box to work and has quite a bit of variety with the clay and LE moves plus the panel for...
