DickR, do you mean like they nearly always need two train drivers per trip because the union insists on the 68 weeks supervised retraining requirement whenever new signals or changed signals happen on any line.

68 weeks with two drivers every time a changed signal anywhere!!!!

Even Jon lefty-Faine on ABC774 really got stuck into the union clown who defended that blatant rort.
That says something about the Melbourne Train drivers' pay and conditions.

I see the unions calling for strikes on grand final day now.

"A FOUR-HOUR train strike may not have caused the chaos predicted, but striking train staff will do their best to disrupt traffic as they march to Flinders Street Station."
