I doubt it very much - the TUPE'd staff are hardly going to demand to be
on different terms to their LU counterparts. I think it is (probably)
safe to say that LU pay, conditions and pension will be better than
Silverlink. The only exception *may* be long served former BR staff
where pension issues may come into play but I am guessing here.

I think the RMT and TSSA will be delighted to be taking on new members
and also pleased with the move from private to public sector operation.
The main battleground seems to be on the North London Railway concession
and what happens to East London Line staff currently with LU.

Here's a (not too serious!) idea Paul, why not transfer the ELL LU staff to
the Silverlink stations that become LU's responsibility, and the former BR
staff to the new ELL franchise following a long period of gardening leave!!
