    Went well, first day consisted of admin work getting contracts handed in, travel pass I'd etc in and getting uniform sizes. Rest of the week was Fire Training at Yoker, First Aid, AC Electrified Lines and touched on Track Safety. Starting PTS tomorrow so its all going good! Good luck to you all.
