Operational staff also get frustrated by trying to do a good job and being perpetually hampered by the delapidated infrastructure we have to work with. Well I know I do. I know that our job is to provide the best possible train service to the travelling public, and on the Northern line a lot of the time it seems we are operating on a wing and a prayer. I'm sure you have quite a different perspective on it to me as I am more involved in day-to-day keeping the railway running as best we can no matter what goes wrong, while you (by the sounds of it) are more looking at how the Northern line can be improved in the longer term. Hannah How many times does it come down to apparant sheer incompetance from the line controllers as happened on Sunday Evening on the Northern at Finchley central? Mill Hill East trains delayed by the fact that the 38TS was on a rail tour Scenario Arrive 18.45 ish No trains to Mill Hill 38 allegedly in public service for this stretch cause it would cause unacceptable delays 38ts does not stop reemerges from Mill Hill 15 odd mins later does not stop Train to Mill HIll sits in siding south of Station for at least another 10 minutes This was now close to 19.30 by the time it came Result pax for MIll Hill delayed for at least 30 if not 40 minutes This has nothing to do with infrastructure Great Idea put a special in service so it does not inconvienence your customers Shame if you are not capable of implementing it. |
