Just seen the attached service announcement from West Midlands Trains (WMT). Nothing new at the current time; apparently though one reason for the shortage of train crew maybe due to a member of staff testing positive for covid, but then coming to work. Seemingly they didn't want to lose a Sunday turn. A further significant number of staff are having to self-isolate because of this.

Perhaps others may have better knowledge of this occurrence. I note that it may not be fully known about yet. However, following the Marylebone incident, you would think people would have a better understanding of the consequences of their actions.

Should be a disciplinary offence to go into work with a positive test!
