Congratulations!

Nah I'm sure they get lots of folk asking. Shows enthusiasm

That's you told off.

What depot?

Hi, Guard here and soon-to-be driver it seems. I had a wonderful conversation with a driver at my TOC last week about my applications and talent poolship and she mentioned a preference for a TOC 'where you get to drive Loco's". So my question is, is it cooler/regarded more/better fun to...

I got one to say they had received application and that it would be 2-4 weeks to hear back. But I got the questionnaire email almost immediately after that. Nothing since.

Still says 'application in process' for me.
