After getting stuck right into the GTR dispute thread and having a good old rant about the latest woes, it got me thinking about the situation with our brothers and sisters across the channel on le SNCF..
With all these carts being delivered -(which if they are anything like ours) will surely be DOO compatible with cameras on the cars, so what will be come of le chef de train?
Do SNCF -(and indeed other the other European administrations) have plans afoot to get rid of guards as is going on here, or do the French actually value their railwaymen and women and apply common sense?
There are also plenty of shunters about, at Gares all over France for splitting and attaching locos and coaches. I can't help but wonder what their fait will be each time a new line goes over to carts..
Certainly, those employed at Paris Est can't have an awful lot of work to do now with the end of loco hauled operations on ligne 4...
