Each depot requests an apprentice to join them in a specific discipline (Signalling, Track etc). It would then be down to looking if there is a requirement in another depot who would be looking for an apprentice in your discipline. It would mainly be down to local managers. I live in Yorkshire so don't know of the depots in Cornwall I'm afraid

Hi, i am currently in Plymouth, and have moved depots in the past. I would say focus on staying at the Plymouth for the majority of the apprenticeship and then you can look at local positions that will be advertised on the jobs page. You can change during the apprenticeship, but it can be complicated due to the paperwork and finances associated with a depot taking on an apprentice
