I’m back, after a week ban from the forum.......
I would strongly recommend all potential signallers to pop over to the YouTube’s, and search Network Rail RED videos.
Although some of the actors should really be in hollyoaks, not hollywood the gist of the videos should open your eyes to the potential opportunities YOU as a signaller can have to end or seriously end someones day minus a arm, leg or mental ability for the rest of their life.
You’ll also realise that you’ll have to unfortunately work with, and try your best to ensure some rather silly people out their working stay safe and go home. How important communications are, and how you really need to stand firm and not bend when it comes to safety.
Id also suggest reading the signaller involved RAIB reports, hopefully this will also go to reinforce how the role changes from day turn signaller to night time site manger/signaller.
