I worked fort Network rail for 30 years… I worked fort Network rail for 30 years learnt experience from ground up. Ex forces employees run a jumped up company highly payed individuals. steer clear as these individuals would not get jobs any where else. corruption at the highest level. Government should be made accountable for paying 100k a year to people that are not able to get £10 an hour outside of the industry. constantly making cock ups but not being made accountable.

Data collection scams - breach of data privacy Network Rail publishes entry level jobs that do not exist. I tried to apply for a job recently and after I registered with all my details, CV, employment history etc, my application was unsuccessful because I refused to be included in their "pool" of candidates for future consideration. After realising the scam I requested for deletion of my data and my careers hub account. It is called THE RIGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN. And now they play crazy and treat me as an employee and request for passport to proceed for deletion of my data!!! When I was only a candidate for a fake role!!! Network rail as it seems is a scam company breaching data privacy laws!!! Stay away and be careful when applying.

Lazy & noisey For the second consecutive night these idiots are sat playing games on phones, Diesel engine running for hours sat outside my flat window whilst shouting! 3 hours last night and an hour already today, have complained but still sat playing. Police next, I wonder how much they get paid per hour to do nothing other than keep people awake at 3am?

Part 2 sex and drugs How can one individual get the top job at Network Rail, went off work sick for six months on full pay, but staff were told that this individual was seconded to another region. The reason was he was caught by his ex partner cheating with his P.A. you really could not make this up, the womaniser has had the backing from his seniors to take public sector taxpayers money while he sat a home pretending to be seconded at another depot.

Crossing closure at Cononley They have closed a well-used pedestrian rail crossing and RIGHT OF WAY at Cononley because the horn on one of the LNER trains is not loud enough. It's been shut since November 2020, now extended to December 2021 and the alternative route is dangerous. Now making excuses about cutting back vegetation to improve sighting? - not good enough, sort the train out and open the crossing NOW. If you're not careful people will start to think you just want an excuse to close the crossing forever.
