I am new here and wanted to thank everyone for the great advise and resources on the forum.

I have attended a DMI for a trainee role with GTR in Gillingham and had a couple of questions (maybe for anyone who has already started training?):

1) Where is the training held? Is there a single location which the classroom based training is located at or are there multiple locations?
2) What is the parking situation like in Gillingham, I am not able to see a lot of parking locally? Is there parking planned at the new depot?
3) What routes will new drivers be doing?

Thanks in advance for any help in advance.

Hi I also attended a DMI for Gillingham, there are around 130 spaces at the station with a car park across the road as well.

Have they told you if you passed the DMI yet?

I did here that training would have to be done at other stations due to no room as of yet at Gillingham.

Classroom Training will be held at Cannon Steet, London.

Parking is apparently being sorted at the moment as the current amount of spaces available is not enough.

Heard routes will eventually be, Rainham - Cambridge, Rainham - Luton, but that's not definite.
