Hi,
I'm trying to get hold of a Booklet that now seems to be out of print.

I have a rVCE test coming up and am after the "Railway Verbal Communication Test"book and CD by Richard Munn.
Do any of you have an old copy that I could buy ?
There must be 1000's out there, but no new books anywhere.
Help !

I'm assuming that's for the role of tube operator with TfL as I sat the rVCe test last year with them. You don't need to purchase any material In preparation for it. You will be played a voice message from a driver to a signaller about an accident in a tunnel. While the message is being played you can take notes (Name of driver, train number, signal post number etc). After you get 5mins to go over it then once that time is up you have to relay what you wrote while being recorded. You should have practice material with the email and that's all you need really. I failed on one competence question at the final interview.
If it's not TfL you're on about then my apologies. I've only heard of them doing that test.

The practice material you get sent from TfL is adequate. It's not that difficult.
