    Dave, I too have had a hit this month as I have used more leave pro rata! I read the contract as in we get paid 4 weeks in arrears.... Any idea what day pay day will be this month?!

    Anyone currently going through the classroom training at Boulton House? I am told this is 9-5, is that to the minute or do you get early finishes? Due to start 3rd October. Thanks

    I'm same as you Bean, had to get my notice in last week to make my 28 days I have to give. Think I've used all my leave though so will be working right up to it!

    Assessment was 19th Aug , didn't find out on the day but a couple of days later then went on medical 24th Aug and offer a few days after that. I have an email confirmation of offer but need an actual contract! Tbh for me the whole process has been really quick, almost rushed. Applied end June...

    Congratulations Kylie! Was that for Northern? Got mine next Friday. To confirm, they didn't do the written communication test, but they did the SJE combined with MMI?

    A career as a train driver

    Hi All, Very informative thread! Could anyone advise on the best book I can buy for extra preparation for an assessment centre I have coming up soon for Northern? Worked through the practice material they have sent and read through this thread but want some extra practice/reading! Thanks
