    A career as a signaller

    Hi, I had my medical 2 weeks ago and I've recently found out I will be starting at my box on the 16th Jan for 1 week as I am booked in school for the 23rd Jan. Haven't been told where but I assume York. No idea if there are any courses before this but I imagine the Christmas period plays a part.
