Apparently, Tube drivers are going to be issued with shorts for the
summer!!
Is this to go with the sunglasses they got last year to wear in the
tunnels?

Nah, to go with the DVD players, newspapers, mobile phones and other
apperel
they need to perform the strenuous task of pressing 3 buttons and
pulling a
lever every 5 minutes.

Right...

A tube driver allegedly caught watching a DVD while in charge of a passenger
train has been sacked, it was revealed today.

.....

Last year a mainline driver was dismissed after he used his mobile phone to
contact a radio phone-in programme - and was heard by an off-duty manager.

.....

I've lost count of the number of drivers (victoria line seems the worst
IMHO) that have a newspaper open in the cab
