    ScotRail Qualified Drivers

    Thanks for your reply and the information. We know what we're up against with regards to the odds of us both getting a position at the same time so it comes down to luck. We're happy to wait but wanted to move up as we have family there and want to be near them. I suppose a speculative email...

    To be fair brother, you're probably more right than I am. The info I got is now some 2 years old and things may have changed. I got the info from a Senior Man at EUS. let's be honest I think we'd all prefer Pendos

    I got fed up with ASLEF and their corrupt ways- left and joined RMT. Another 12 Drivers at my depot followed.

    Yes I spoke to HR directly and they said that unfortunately they needed 4 people, and I was 5th in the pool. Better luck next time
