As it's impossible for 2 people to be at least 2 metres apart from each other in a cab, unless TfW can get an exemption from this law, 769 training cannot happen for the forseeable future. Even when 'lockdown' restrictions are lifted soon, the scientists and increasingly politicians have been very clear that ''social distancing' measures will be a part of all of our lives for up to a year, possibly longer until we get effective drugs and/or a vaccine for Covid-19.
The 769 project just seems doomed to me.
TfW to get the rest of their 769s by the summer, so they can just sit in the sidings at Canton? As @PHILIPE has said, training on the 769s cannot take place due to the 2 metre social distancing rule, which is law for all workplaces in Wales.Modern railways latest issue says the first of gers 769s has been completed and northern should have theirs by may and tfw should get the rest during the summer
