Re to greater Anglia if not added , 720s are DOO operationally, yes they have a guard key for door close however it isn't used day to day only for competency with degrading working. Wickford still use 321 rennatus and 720 but again due to ASDO , when going on Braintree branch there isn't a...

As far as I’m aware certainly with my TOC you can apply unlimited times for guard but driver is universal twice only across all TOCs

See you there mate! Starting same course too.

To echo ferret, you didnt meet the enhanced on any of them unfortunately , national standard is pretty much disused these days every toc will want stage 1/2 enhanced or stage 1 at least. I hate to be blunt but i dont think its the job for you, the psychometric tests however difficult can be...

send me over a pm mate what depot also?

I’d love to know also waiting for shoeburyness adverts for shunters to come up. East Ham came up but nothing for shoeburyness yet.

If you don’t mind me asking was you external or internal ?

I wonder if they will be doing another in 2020 as lot of drivers are retiring in various depots and dont want to drive then new trains, southend is very sought after especially mainline.

23k +

Il come in with my 2 pence , I failed back in 2017 same place as you on 3/6 questions mostly because I hadn’t had any real relevant experience that answers what they are looking for. I passed couple months back on my 2nd attempt and in regards to that question I used an example of being in a...

See website https://apply.greateranglia.co.uk/vacancies/5363/

Yes no vacancies at any depot mainline or depot. But you have to look at this like this, Each depot likely had 10 mainline not even that and 5 depot again not even that available , places like ilford and Cambridge are most required. Most places are filled by internal depot drivers wanting...

Yeah basically any toc with vacancies.

C2C wanted shunters for East Ham but I’m waiting for shoeburyness.

No , thursday in london is the new night out for a while now so its always quieter on thursdays and fridays now , 1700/1730/1750/1810/1830 LST-NRW is emptier compared to Monday is rammed full and standing.

How long did it take from application to DMI with AGA?

VSE is not part of the train driver assessments so you haven't lost a life there some TOCs do it and most don't crossrail do it, GA dosent. If you pass to the national standard it's not a fail but it means you haven't met the standard of that specific company so you have both your lives in tact...

I don't understand why they are advertising depots with no vacancies then. It should be pass DMI medicial then when a space opens up you are entered into the link. Frustrating process

Anyone heard anything since? Anyone got stage 2 or DMI interviews yet

If you can imagine they have thousands like you doing the exact same thing they don't have the capacity to respond. Have to be patient in the railway for careers
