I totally get what you’re saying and I’m immensely grateful of the position I’m in. But the training just to load and deliver fuel is around 6 weeks. You also can’t take your phone or sat nav. So navigating around London isn’t the easiest of tasks. It’s of the reasons the job has transferable skills.Not to diminish your previous role, but what you’re doing now is orders of magnitude different. A tanker train came through a station close to where I live the other day, some googling revealed it’s Heathrow’s supply of aviation fuel for a reasonable period. Driven by one train driver…
Shows you’ve made the right move .
I’ve definitely made the right move mate, I genuinely couldn’t be any happier
I can only go off what I was told. I did speak to a DB guy at Masborough and he said he does 12 hour nights.I'm at Peterborough and I really think this Driver is incorrect, Nothing to do with hours !!! It’s for terminal time unfortunately DB don't get a choice when they can run in and out, we have to have our slots, and unfortunately the terminal time is too great for one driver to cover.
