    Well I guess this means you are only human. Things like this happen under pressure.

    Group Bourdon Tool

    Yes I have got it. It's in A5 and the assessments are in A4 size. But it helps. Anything that helps is worth paying for

    I dont think we get a choice on where we would like to be based. It could be anywhere on the network. And yes I agree that some people dont like to give away too much info on the assessment. I really dont know why. Good luck on friday. Hope it all goes well for you.

    Trainee Train Drivers - Waterloo (14.01.20)

    I got myself a dot test book on amazon. I believe SWR give you 2 mins per test so I halved that to 1 min to do it on the book. At the moment I'm getting through 11 lines in 1 minute and missing 4, 4 dot boxes. I think 11 lines is good but I need to cut out my mistakes of missing some.

    Well done MatthewLdn. It must be good to have that off your chest. Not so good that you have to take another trip to Southampton to finish it tho.

    Trainee Train Drivers - Waterloo (14.01.20)

    I'm a steel fabricator/welder for over 20 years. I have no more ladders to climb in my job, I always feel I need to better myself. I always thought 20 years is enough for any person in any industry, this is the reason I am applying for this role.

    Thank you. I actually didn't expect to get a reply at all. But, gotta take the opportunity now that I have. I'm sure you will get the call. If I did then most others should.

    I also have been lucky enough to apply for this position within the short advertising timeframe. I've just gotten an email for an assessment on 1st of february. Was not expecting this at all to be honest. Very nervous and excited at the same time.

    Cheers guys. My mechanical would be a lot better than my electrical, so I guess I'll have to put a lot of time in my electrical practice.

    Train Maintainer London Underground Vacancy

    Hi Whizz, Were the questions more mechanical or electrical based?

    Train Maintainer London Underground Vacancy

    Apparently so. I have my assessment on 14th February which should give me enough time to revise anything I should need to know, (Hopefully). Has anybody on here actually been accepted yet?

    They didn't mention an exact depot . They advertised that you could be working anywhere in north,south,east or west london.
