I've been informed that my training will probably be in either Oxford or Reading, but as of yet they are not too sure.
Would be nice to find out soon though where my taining is going to be, as I'm relocating from up north and with each day that passes it gives me less time to find decent accommodation. So if there is anyone out there that has any information on the whereabouts of GWR training courses I'd be very grateful if you'd pass on the information to me.

Which Driver Depot have you put in for? It may be better to look at accommodation within the hour from there.
The training centre is at Reading, that's where they have the Turbo & 387 simulator. When you move onto the actual handling part of your training you'll be working diagrams from your Home Depot.
If you are looking at Oxfordshire you'll definitely be needing that Drivers' salary
Have you considered the Swindon area (don't forget you'll have your travel pass for the train), I know quite a few colleagues who travel in from there.
