    The 45 minutes to a depot rule.

    Once you're in they can't dictate where you move to. I lived 5 mins/2 miles from my depot when I applied. When training was done and I could afford to buy a house I did. 60 mins/27 miles away :-)

    Buttons on inner ends of 317s

    Desiro have a button in situ but AFAIK they don't do anything. And the same applies for 458-458/5's

    How do members of The Cabinet travel on the train?

    During the Farnborough Air show last year Mr Cameron and his entourage occupied an entire coach of a busy four-car 450 Desiro from FNB to WAT. That's the kind of man who just became PM *slow clap*

    Door controls left open

    Unless you have a carriage key (L or T Key) then you can't do anything. Sometimes the locks fail and they will just open. I didn't sign 158/9 so can't comment but 455 and Desiros are fail safe.

    Holiday leave

    During your training it could be an issue. Once your productive, then no. Just speak to your DSM.

    Medical!

    It is a walk in the park but yes peeing on demand is tricky with someone standing behind you. And yes relax my Dr had 3 attempts to get my blood pressure as I was nervous and it was high.

    VSE is split into 3 subtests the first two are pretty easy but the third is a combination of 1&2 and you need eyes like a chameleon to focus on two things.
