Best of luck, but dont you just press the start button after shutting the doors?  I assume your driving the train in Manual mode? |

He will be driving in auto in passenger service, and coded and slow manual to and from the depot. I was code tripped on my road test, but dealt with the situation by the book (and without referring to it). |

All the best for road test (which I can imagine has finished by now...Thursday, quarter past five) and hope that another driver gets enlisted to the forum! I like the 67's, I use them every day from Stockwell to OXO and back and find them comfortable and efficient......one big plus for me is the Vic is open all evening again now...excellent stuff!
