Hi all How long before you started training did you receive your contracts? Been given a start date of 1st November on the phone so am hoping it comes through quite soon. Also did you have it emailed or sent in the post? Thanks

Has anyone on 14/03 got their contracts through yet?

Looks good to me mate, don't go into huge detail about the class 700, things like who makes it, when delivery is likely to be complete etc. Mention how many passengers they can move and new features such as open carriages you can walk the entire length of the train. Also touch on the new...

I wouldn't go into too much about finiances, they don't need you to know the after tax profits! I researched purely on their website regarding passenger numbers and key commitments etc. A bit about routes and also rolling stock such as the new class 700's. Reserch the top management structure...

Nice one mate, congrats. Had my medical on Wednesday so hoping to hear today too

Is that for 14/03 or 14/04?

Fingers crossed for you mate. When I was at my medical they said they were so busy with new drivers at the mo, plus they still have existing drivers medicals to carry out. I think due to the validity period of the medical they don't want to put people through and then have to do it again if they...

Have you guys given them a call to chase up? Keep positive, I'm sure they will call soon with good news.

Had my medical today. All went well. Was told that everything was fine and clean bill of health. Got to wait until Thursday for them to send off the report to GTR so fingers crossed I hear by Friday of a start date ���� It's a very thorough health check but nothing to strenuous. Was in there 2...

General info about the franchise such as passenger numbers but more individual TOC you're applying for, such as rolling stock, routes, key commitments etc. Check their website and extract Info from there. Good luck.

The number will Start with 020 8929 .... All interviews and medical are arranged through telephone calls and then you go online to confirm your attendance.

Fingers crossed you'll get a call this week then mate. May be worth giving them a call and chasing it up.

Have you had your medical yet mate? I've got mine next week so was hoping to get a date shortly afterwards.

With all due respect OP, TOCs don't have that rule to be awkward, the 60 minute rule is in place because of safety. trying to get around that rule would be crazy in my opinion. An hours driving on an early turn must be tiring enough but then to drive a train, a job with high fatigue, would be...

Click on the sticky thread just under the thread you posted on and it's got practice software to download on there.

Congrats. Was that for 14/03?

Is there an upper weight limit for these medicals or is it based on the movements such as touching toes etc?

Hi all Just wondering if anyone's got any ideas for a documentary series on the railway worth downloading? Looking for present day rather than older ones. Thanks
