Update May 3rd 2019

Today your RMT TFC reps met with LUL to discuss levels on trains; the current numbers were agreed as part of the 2009 Agreement.

The formula used to determine which “Band” a depot fell in was based on various factors, including the number of duties at a depot, the position of the depot on the line, the frequency of trains, number of remote booking locations and the proximity of the train crew to a rolling stock depot.

Subject: LOSS OF TRAIN OPERATOR DISPLAY, TBTC LINES – LONDON UNDERGROUND 

That we note the resolution from our Neasden Branch regarding the unacceptable situation with company changes to the LU Rule Book; resulting in transition based train control stock (TBTC) being kept in service if/when the train operator display (TOD) fails, which will also result in Train Operators having to rely on unqualified and remotely based third parties service decisions whilst they are driving their trains.

Subject: INACCURATE RECORDINGS ON ELECTRONIC INCIDENT REPORTING FORMS (EIRF) – LUL

That we note the resolution from the London Transport Regional Council regarding the company’s move to remove Train Operators ability to give their account of incidents involving them, and the obvious victimisation of our members that will undoubtedly result.

This is totally unacceptable and we instruct the General Secretary to have this matter taken up at the highest level with London Underground.

All operational branches and the London Transport Regional Council to be advised.
