Thank you for replying craigybagel (great name), much appreciated. Fingers crossed I can't find a number to speak to anyone for love nor money & they don't reply to emails. Very frustrating.

Hi all, was offered a trainee drivers course in March this year for Shrewsbury. Unfortunately due to personal circumstances I had to turn it down but asked to be kept in talent pool. Does anybody have the number for recruitment please as I haven't heard anything yet? I'm suspecting I've been put...

In the same boat as you, passed assessments in Nov. I originally applied for Cardiff but was able to change it to Shrewsbury. I’ve not heard anything since. I’m Just coming to the end of my senior conducting training with WMT which has been a great insight to the rail industry.

Hi Pepe, thank you. I contacted HR who said they would contact trainers but haven’t heard anything back. Like you said, we will find out very soon. Catch up with you on the 7th.

Hi, that’s great information thank you.

Hi Pepe Le Pew, I will be joining you on the 7th in Birmingham. I’ve been trying to find out what the shifts will be during the first 3 months but to no avail. I was told by a senior conductor from Snow Hill Depot, where I will be based, that after the initial 3 week induction we will be doing...
