Hi
I have just got a job as a trainee train driver for first capital connect at brighton but have have an option to choose blackfriars or kings cross.
Which one would be the better choice and what rosters do they work 4 or 5 day week
Thanks
On the tl side it's a 3 week Roster week 1 mon tues of, week 2 wed Thur of, week 3 fri sat of, then back to week 1
Gn side odd days of here and there not set as the tl side
On the tl side routes are Bedford to Brighton via London bridge/ crystal palace or Thornton Heath , blackfriars to Sutton via Wimbledon or mitcham. Selhurst depot, Norwood junction to Sutton via wallington, London bridge low level to tules hill via Peckham, all depots are just about to learn herne hill to Victoria (Eastern).
This then varies by depot blackfriars also sign blakfriars to Sevenoaks via catford or kent house plus Orpington to Sevenoaks (including via birbeck)
Brighton also sign Brighton to wivlesfield via lewes and lovers walk depot
Kings cross is kx to Peterborough/ Cambridge , moorgate via Hertford loop.
Work wise you can't beat Brighton followed by blackfriars, kx I can't speak of.
Any other q's just ask.
