Ha! We've got one who rocks up at least an hour early and is late for their shift more often than not...
Next question. I'm on a roll!
Would it be wrong to assume a box doesn't have nights or Sunday's if there's nothing on the lines during those hours? I'd imagine there may be exceptions for maintenance etc...
Generally yes, however some SB may be specially opened or closed late/opened early to allow a T3 possession, once the block is taken the SB can close but the block can’t be handed back until the SB is open again so a special opening time would be agreed and covered.
We have some SB on the line between Abergavenny and Hereford that can be switched out even during the day if they’re short staffed, signals off position and a very very very long block section!
