I shouldn’t see why it should affect you mate, as they have given me the opportunity regarding a interview, I think the 1 hour rule can be bent slightly if your good enough you will get the job, my reason for applying for Blackpool are family related etc but not going too go into that too much on here, have you heard anything ? When did you apply ? I’ve got my fingers and toes crossed but what will be will be, there crying out for drivers I was looking at the trains from Manchester too Blackpool north this morning at least 3 cancelled and I know it will be down to lack of train crew, so I’m now thinking of driving tomorrow as if the planned train at 07.42 from Gatley to Preston is cancelled I would be knackered mate, as they say prior planning prevents piss poor performance lol
