REAR M DOOR ALARM ACTIVATED ON JUBILEE LINE
LUL recently implemented a change to the Rule for dealing with a rear M door alarm activation on the Jubilee line. Previous to this change a Train Operator was asked to contact the Controller and then go back to investigate the activation. The Rule change is that the Train Operator would now contact the Controller, get authority to proceed in Restricted Manual and continue to next station.
Comrades
We met with management to discuss the Jubilee Line M Door issue, and a host of other issues at a recent Tier 2A meeting.
The upshot is, we are still no nearer a resolution on this issue. We will need another meeting to discuss the issue further, but in the meantime, management have a agreed not to ask any driver to carry on to the next station to check should they receive an M Door activated alarm. Drivers will be allowed to go back and check, even between stations.
London Underground - fingered again in unfair dismissal case

The latest case is James Lambert, a CSA from Stratford whose heinous crimes were.....to be honest I am not sure.
He was accused of a racial assault on a security guard.
Found not guilty. In court
He was accused of assault on the security guard
Found not guilty. In court.
LUL sacked James for bringing the company into disrepute.
For being found not guilty? In court.
