In response to the RTBU’s media comments, the Transport Minister has launched a disgraceful and unfounded attack on train drivers, suggesting that drivers are sitting around twiddling their thumbs instead of driving trains. The Minister knows just as well as we do that that is blatantly untrue. We work to schedules which are computer generated, and as for the fact that part of [drivers] employment agreement mandates they inspect trains before they drive them - of course it does! Were not sure about the Minsters views, but we certainly believe the safety of the travelling public is the most important thing at the end of the day. A cheap shot with no substance at all.
