Your Safety record will transfer to the new TOC. It's part of the process.

Didn’t get the previous messages loaded before sending my query regarding safety of the line record sent to others. Seems things are moving on for us.

I have also received an email from LNER asking me to fill up a safety of the line records. This is my first time applying for a qualified driver role, now I'm wondering, is this a standard process for a qualified driver role?

Yep.

Usually fill it in yourself initially and they will get the official record transferred from your previous TOC, possibly after you’ve started the new role. That’s what happened to me when I moved.

For obvious reasons make sure you don’t miss anything off!!

Completely understand that the covid-19 situation has delayed things. However the trainee applications opened up after the qualified closed. From reading the trainee posts it seems they had quiet a bit of interaction for a while. It has gone quiet now on the trainee front but surprised there was no contact at all for the qualified applications.

A simple email to us wouldn’t exactly take a lot of their time. So many other vacancies have been posted on their site since as you say... although a driver who put in for it from SW trains back in December might think twice now after their nice pay deal

Hope the communication skill expected from the applicants is of a much higher standard though...

I was told an amount back in January, which, although I can't remember exactly it was around 6 or less but that may have changed since.

Bumped into an lner driver who used to work at my toc around the same time and he suggested there will be many opportunities in the next few years but obviously they could fill those with trainees

Hello mate, I received an email yesterday evening saying I was successful along with a number of other people. They’re looking at the number of vacancies they have and will be in touch at a later date. Did you receive the same email?

Hi, I have the same email and it's been quite unexpected, now I am wondering if there is a course happening by the end of the year, or next year... I should have asked...

Hi Guys, any news on your start date yet? I would have thought it would be difficult to do traction or route training in these times.....I hope you get some positive dates soon.
