Trains will run through the night from 12 September 2015, with six running
an hour across the five “night tube” lines – Jubilee, Victoria
and most of
the Piccadilly, Central and Northern lines.

Transport for London (TfL) said the move would support almost 2,000
permanent jobs and provide a £360m boost to the economy.

....

Mick Cash, the new RMT general secretary, said...
the truth is that the mayor threw this plan in as a diversion from
his massive cuts and closures programme that will axe a thousand staff and
decimate services and safety.”


So what is it: 2,000 more or 1,000 less?
