The drivers seem to like it as it has more variety than say St Albans. Quite a few early starts and late finishes.Interesting thanks a lot mate.
Do you know what working out of CRI depot is like in general as depots go?

That's not very good, if it's true.On the Southern side. I have heard that after the current lot at training school, there will be no more intake of trainee drivers for two years.
If the rumours are true reouthern. I’m gutted.That's not very good, if it's true.
It’s a little disheartening. Fingers crossed for a course soon. At my DMI they told they’re looking at the next year to year and a half. That was June last year. So I’ll give em until DecWe’ll get there mate
Hopefully, one day anyway

I had my DMI at the beginning of October and was told 12 months ish, so that ties in with what you were told. Obviously I accept things can and often do change.
It’s certainly disheartening when almost daily you see Southern services being cancelled due to availability of crew.
I was talking to a Southern DI a few nights ago and he said there are plenty of DIs available, so it’s not that, which is causing an issue.
I’m not sure. Just eagerly awaiting the monthly update email. To which I haven’t received one this month, you ? And how many of there are us awaiting a course for Southern do you think ?
Does anyone know what the state of play is with regards to the Ashford extension. I can still see on some maps that it has the Ashford extension on it with broken lines surrounding it.
Yes that one. Is that service not going ahead now?Do you mean the TL Cambridge to Maidstone/Ashford service? If so, it’s as dead as a can of spam.

Fair enough. That is a shame to be honestTL Binned it entirely. Southeastern were going to pick it up instead and recruited a load of people, but it’s now all on hold again.
Not sure it will ever go ahead in its current format, we are waiting to hear.
Hi been looking all over the forum for the 6 questions for MMI and what they are looking for any chance you could point me in the right direction?Work your answers now in the star method. Write them out and memorise. You won’t go far wrong. And what they’re looking for on each of the 6 answers. I’ll message you.

I cannot thank you enough.1/ When have you been relied upon to do a job well in the face of difficulties?
2/ When have you had to work and it was important not to make a mistake?
3/ When have you had to follow rules and procedures?
4/ When have you taken control of a pressurised or emergency situation?
5/ When have you had to persevere to learn?
6/ Describe a task that you have done that is similar to that of a train driver.
Can any of you guys who recently done the assessment or any one in fact remember anything about the trainability test (memory) test and how it looked? And can anyone explain to me pretty much how the perception test looks?1/ When have you been relied upon to do a job well in the face of difficulties?

My mate had an interview with southern recently and said it was very customer service orientated…. When have you gone the extra mile to help others? When did you last work with a team member to assist a customer? When did you last strive to improve a customers experience? Plus the usual, what do you know about GTR?Hi all. I had my assessment day in May (which I thankfully passed) and have just received the date for my DMI for GTR. Can anyone who has been through the process recently give me an idea of what to expect in terms of the process and the types of questions they might ask? Thanks
Had mine recently. Very nice nice relaxed. Do your research about the company and let your personality shine. You‘ll be fine.Hi all.
