Is this page still being updated?
If _toommm_ can't do it anymore is there any way someone else could have access to update the list?
Would be a shame for such a useful thread to become out of date.
The list of TOCs and depots on this thread has not been updated for several months despite people posting updates - including mine about 313s being withdrawn at Southern.What do you want updating?

Excellent. Thanks very much. It's a really useful thread.The moderator team can do this. I will update it all over the coming days.
May as well knock off the 170s from all WMT depots while you're at it.The moderator team can do this. I will update it all over the coming days.
If you need SWR stuff let me know and I’ll have a look I work for them so I’ll see if anything needs changing for themThe moderator team can do this. I will update it all over the coming days.
The list says Strawberry Hill guards sign East Putney. As I understand it this route knowledge has been removed from this depot. Maybe you can confirm?If you need SWR stuff let me know and I’ll have a look I work for them so I’ll see if anything needs changing for them
for SWR - Staines don't sign 707 or 456 any longer!As always, anyone who wishes to contribute is most welcome; please just post below with any updates as required.
Indeed all 456s have now been withdrawn from South Western Railway!for SWR - Staines don't sign 707 or 456 any longer!
Some crew still sign 707s I believefor SWR - Staines don't sign 707 or 456 any longer!
I was looking into this myself I’m not sureThe list says Strawberry Hill guards sign East Putney. As I understand it this route knowledge has been removed from this depot. Maybe you can confirm?
It might be useful to write a preamble to the South Western Railway section explaining that there are 2 types of Guards: "Commercial Guards" who sell and check tickets on all routes and "Guards" who do not, aka "Non-commercial Guards", who work mostly suburban routes only. Strawberry Hill and Wimbledon depots have non-commercial Guards only. The other depots in and around London have links for both: Waterloo and Staines - not sure about Guildford and Woking. The country depots are Commercial Guards only. Don't want to make things too complicated but can see there are references to "Commercial Guards" and "Non commercial Guards" without an explanation of what this means. The preamble to the CrossCountry section is very good as a template for this.Some crew still sign 707s I believe
I was looking into this myself I’m not sure
This is what I can get for SWR at the moment the stock is changed to remove 442s and 456s and the depot which i definitely know will sign 458s have been put in as I believe it’s not confirmed which will be signing them exactly but Fratton and Bournemouth definitely will be. I have also removed the link dependent stuff off as-well on the routes I know all the depot sign it’s probably not 100% correct but I’ll update it over the course of the week so here you go.

All depots on SWR apart from a few have links but most links at depots sign all the same routes it’s just rostering that’s the difference like fratton has about 7 links but we all do the same workIt might be useful to write a preamble to the South Western Railway section explaining that there are 2 types of Guards: "Commercial Guards" who sell and check tickets on all routes and "Guards" who do not, aka "Non-commercial Guards", who work mostly suburban routes only.

Yes but still might be worth clarifying that Wimbledon and Strawberry Hill are non commercial guards only. While Waterloo and Staines have links for commercial and non commercial guards. The current references to "Commercial Guards" and "non commercial guards" make no sense except for SWR employees.All depots on SWR apart from a few have links but most links at depots sign all the same routes it’s just rostering that’s the difference like fratton has about 7 links but we all do the same work
I’m still updating it but yes I will be adding it when I get a chance to go through it againYou’ve missed Salisbury now sign Basingstoke to Reading.
I’ll look into itYes but still might be worth clarifying that Wimbledon and Strawberry Hill are non commercial guards only. While Waterloo and Staines have links for commercial and non commercial guards. The current references to "Commercial Guards" and "non commercial guards" make no sense except for SWR employees.
That terminology is outdated anyway, the two grades now are Commercial and Metro Guard, Metro is the replacement job title for "Non-Commercial".Yes but still might be worth clarifying that Wimbledon and Strawberry Hill are non commercial guards only. While Waterloo and Staines have links for commercial and non commercial guards. The current references to "Commercial Guards" and "non commercial guards" make no sense except for SWR employees.
Can confirm that Guildford and Woking have both Commercial and Metro Guards, as do Waterloo and Staines as you say. Strawberry Hill and Wimbledon are indeed Metro only, with all other depots Commercial only.It might be useful to write a preamble to the South Western Railway section explaining that there are 2 types of Guards: "Commercial Guards" who sell and check tickets on all routes and "Guards" who do not, aka "Non-commercial Guards", who work mostly suburban routes only. Strawberry Hill and Wimbledon depots have non-commercial Guards only. The other depots in and around London have links for both: Waterloo and Staines - not sure about Guildford and Woking.

Is it still the case that guards at IR tend to be multiskilled and have other duties as well? I assume that's the case for the Dundalk pair at the very least.May i please ask is this thread still being updated? Just wondering as my previous additions in post #202 regarding Caledonian Sleeper and Translink and Southern and Southeastern a few months ago and a few other peoples additions have not been added yet?
If you want to add the information for Irish Rail it is as follows:
Drogheda depot (Freight Guards):
Dundalk depot (Passenger Guards):
Dublin Connolly depot (Passenger Guards):
Portlaoise depot (Freight Guards):
I think it might be worth adding Irish Rail as most of their Guards work cross border services in to the UK every day so i think they ought to be added too.
Another interesting thing to point out is that Irish Rail is one of only two TOCs left to officially use the term Guard still. SWR is the only other one.
Guards in the ROI get no commission for ticket sales. Where as almost all Guards in GB and all Guards in NI do receive commission.
I think that Irish Rail might also be the only company to still require Guards on many of their freight trains and engineering trains. I do not think we have freight train or engineering train Guards in the UK any more.
Yes most of the freight and engineering Guards based at Drogheda and Portlaoise depots are indeed still multi skilled and have other duties too. However the passenger Guards based at Dundalk and Dublin Connolly depots are solely Guards and do not have any other work.Is it still the case that guards at IR tend to be multiskilled and have other duties as well? I assume that's the case for the Dundalk pair at the very least.
