Hi, I’m looking for any info on TOC’s that allow drivers to wear varifocals and/or info that shows that varifocals are acceptable. I would like to put some detail to my TOC to change the current policy.
Thanks in advance
The track in Chart Leacon has been worked and looks pretty clear though the access from Ashford station side still has a couple of small trees in it, so progress has been made
I’ve heard that a 376 is moving to Ashford down sidings tomorrow (15/05) for driver training.
Anyone able to confirm that?
If true does anyone know which depots are being trained and what routes they will be working?
TIA
I don’t see how they can continue without a direct award despite the emergency measures in place. The contract runs out on Wednesday and if they are to continue the direct award or a contingency award has to be made to supplement the emergency measures. As far as I’m aware the emergency measures...
Is it right that an announcement about the direct award has to be made on Monday or Tuesday? And if it doesn’t happen will the OLR take over on Wednesday morning?
As we are about 5 weeks from the end of the Southeastern franchise and there is no announcement about the OLR taking over, can we assume that there will be a direct award?
They are also paid less than drivers at cross rail, LO, and Southern. The main issue is pay deal was due 2018 and could not be negotiated due to last year franchise (allegedly) and the same is happening this year. So are drivers going to remain at SE with no realistic prospect of a pay deal for...
Less than two weeks until the end of the franchise with no news. What’s everybody backing, contract extension signature or the introduction of the OLR?
I’m hearing that the extension agreement has still not been signed, anyone know any more on this?
Go Ahead shares have also gone below 1800 having recently been over the 2000 mark, coincidence?
