    LU staff vote to strike following dismissal of employee for issuing a refund without a customer present

    Driver training time Bakerloo v Victoria line

    I was wondering how long the driver training time varied depending on which line you drive ? I assume the Victoria, where the train drives itself between stations, would be shorter compared to the Bakerloo where the train is manually driven.
