    Theres are no travel subsidies except for the free travel on GA services and your standard 75% off TOC card.

    Its not something im used to seeing as I dont work sundays at all if possible. Im not sure of the exact figure but there are 44 rostered sundays in a 113 lines. Lets say roughly if we half that 54 weeks of a year earning around £200 for each sunday worked your looking at around and extra £4400 a year. Of course theres nothing stopping you putting your name down for extra sundays any week you like so if would be alot higher if you wanted it to be.

    Yes we do. All together including london weighting is £44,338. This does not include sundays or rest day work. Hope this helps.

    Hi there,


    I've got the assessment centre day next week for a depot driver roll at East Ham and noticed that you went through the same procedure (a few?) years ago?

    I have no questions on the assessments or interviews, but I do have a few (in confidence) on C2C T&C's.

    Do you know what the wage is whilst in training, and once passed after the 14 weeks?
    Also, what does it rise to after a year or second year etc..?

    How many days a week do the shifts cover (Eg 5 on, 2 off etc)
    What type of shifts are covered nowadays?

    And then the million dollar question, how many years should I expect it to take to realistically make it through to mainline?


    Many thanks in advance for your time and assistance,

    No, doesn't look good for April,how much notice do you need to give at work? I know what you mean about emailing,I emailed last week and they rang back. I spoke to L***, who was helpfull, so i think she we let me know as soon as she knows something.No news is good news I guess.
    M
    You would have thought so but reading some of the posts on here it seems this is quite common.If we are to start in April I think we would be told by the end of this month so people can give a months notice at work.let me know if u get a reply, if we don't hear anything by Friday I will ring on Monday.
    M
    She told me Tuesday at kings x,said she would confirm it by letter,no letter yet,I will ring Monday if I haven't heard by then.

    M
    They said I did really well, they just have to do a few more checks before they offer me the job.No mention of medical or references. Is training at East Ham?
    M

    M
