Unlikely as they are all behind a glass cupboard. The guards links consist of 7 links in total Links 1 to 4 are all 24 weeks long. Link 5 I believe is 36 weeks long and there is a small surplus link you usually get 1 long weekend off per 4 weeks with most sundays off and days off in the week. Link 7 is the instructors link. The normal links have link progression which means the finishes (and a few starts) get better the longer u r there. Hope this helps

If say the 11:04 to Crewe was a guard in link 4 would that mean Monday to Friday the gaured will always be from link 4 or will it change depending on what day it is?

Most day type jobs are spread over the links so chances are different guard each day
