FCC trainee jobs bedford 700 series trains

[Paynetrain]

Hi all,

Is anyone driving or working at Bedford at the minute? Just wondering if FCC is looking to start to expand its workforce with the incoming 700 series trains exp 2016 onwards? The advert for the future of thameslink suggests more trains running me thinking they will need more drivers and start recruiting again?

Thanks again.

Hey Paynetrain,

I was (fairly recently) informed that there will be several courses for Trainee Train Drivers at Bedford over the next 18 months.

Probably just need to keep an eye out.

Just been a huge recruitment campaign, I'd be surprised if they didn't have enough to fill the vacancies now.

Ok, thanks I'll keep my eye out .

There's often vacancies at FCC. They had a huge recruitment campaign when I started, have been recruiting drivers non stop and are still short.

Bedford is the largest depot (some drivers say the largest single TOC depot in the country...) so I would definitely keep your eye on it!

Word is that bedford is downsizing and a new depot opening at luton and three bridges.
All hearsay I might add.
