Fantastic, thank you for this I might give it a shot.

Do GBRF have a train drivers program/training academy where one can progress within the company?

Technically yes. But how long you could be waiting is any ones guess.

You need to do at least 2 years minimum as ground staff (not sure if this new position counts) but even then you could be waiting for a lot longer than that.

Its one of the best depots to get your foot into though.

It is certainly one of the busiest.
I know a few of the groudstaff have already been accepted for driver training, but this is after a period of alot more than 2 years.
Not sure about the promotion aspects though. Be prepared for last minute roster changes and covering other staff at short notice.
