I've not got dates yet, but have my medical next Friday so shouldn't be too far off getting PRTC dates now if all goes well. Best of luck mate!

How quickly after your PJFT did you receive your dates if you don't mind me asking? I passed my PJFT 3 weeks ago and have had no call regarding starts dates yet. I called last week and they said it could possibly be November but couldn't confirm it and no expected date to call me to confirm.

i rang up about 2 and a half weeks after i did my pjft and they had dates for me, it depends on what your trade is and what positions they have available for the dates, because the fitness test people sent my results to the wrong place my dates were pushed back becauyse all places had been filled :frown:

Hey!
Did you have to ask for the rail card or did they just send it you?

Just to update, I have got my dates now, my provisional basic start date is 29th October. Little further away than I had hoped but oh well, more time to train and build on my fitness.
