Hiya does anyone know what sort of work drivers for DRS based at Willesden do? Would greatly appreciate any info as considering a move there.
Thanks

Nuclear work to the south coast, and Suffolk generally up to Crewe.

When DRS supplied locos to Anglia those would generally be Willesden job shared with Stowmarket.

As it’s unlikely you’ll get many responses, I’ll try giving a guide- this isn’t 100% but hopefully it’ll give you a rough idea.

Traction: 37s, 57s, 66s, 68s (Possibly 88s as well)
Wembley - Crewe
Wembley - Dungeness/Sizewell/Winfrith

If you’re also considering GBRf at the same location, I believe they do the following:
Traction: 66s
Wembley - Crewe
Wembley - Felixstowe
Higher link adds Class 92 and Euston/Crewe-Preston for Sleeper work. Also, you may sign units for testing such as GBRf are currently testing the Class 800s and Class 755 Stadler units.
