Why wouldn't it go ahead?

Diagram confirmation is Friday for following sat-sun. But base roster is known weeks ahead if u don't want to move bands/jobs

I think their point was that it's not an actual book.

One particular spotter/enthusiast I worked with for a few months ended up not paying attention to all the rules they had been taught and threw the job of a lifetime away, because they couldn't help but go back to spotter, rather than railway professional.

After 2 years u start again as a graduate I believe

I'm in a final salary and have been with HH for 3 and half years

Lots of waiting and sleeping, then a big fat wedge of GO and u have to be on it. Lots of nights, but that doesn't bother me. Looking to do around 100 this year, but I still have plenty of time off, hols and family time. If I wanted to push it, I could earn more. I love it.

Exactly, and cost effective.

Because the 60/66's are busy pulling stuff?
