I will have a crack at number 2 which may help number 1. Single yellow approaching Waterloo, 20mph max for me. Single yellow in the sticks crack on past at 85mph and don't even touch the brake till later . No solid one size fits all

I made 41 attempts to call resource manager recently when all was going wrong. if they won't answer and tell me what is happening I shall sit and wait

My booked train is due 60 mins late but my next working after that leaves on time in 30mins, how do I be proactive and decide which train to ignore without direct instruction?

agreed, so the question is get 78% into a union ? or get rid of the remaining union

22% are in unions. So get rid of the unions or get more unions into the workplace like people are trying at Amazon and McDonald's ? 1690037870 Point 1. Turn out and vote against the strike, at least turn up. Point 2. Isnt that the railway wage increase. Competition between TOCs ?

completely agree, but I dont trust any employer or government to give us something out of the generosity of their hearts, that upsets the profit.

I was actually incredibly angry at NHS staff for the extremely poor turn out on the last ballot. I believe the unions have an important part to play and I need to turn out and vote as part of my place in my union.

so what's the plan then ? Get rid of unions, everyone in the country on zero hour contracts and minimum wage ? Or get rid of minimum wage and just get whatever you are given ? Get rid of maternity and paternity leave ? Go sick and get fired ?

I have the utmost gratitude to the last few years which has seen me grasp my money firmly. Gone was my most expensive hobby with the huge dose of FOMO. I am saving like a lunatic and paying down the mortgage as quick as possible. I wasnt installed with a good finance system and it's taken...

Action Short Of Strike.

I believe the train was in the station. There simply was nowhere else to go.

Gazebo no longer on the track. Single line at Dorchester blocked due to damaged train. Fitters in Botley dealing with another incident

Could this be a repeat of the Fareham incident ? Train in a full on slide, realised it was not going to get stopped at the Red so pressed the red emergency button stopping all trains and these two trains ended up at the same point ?

it was a 158 , 4 cars

It might also be worth, if you can, programming your mobile phone so it turns itself on and off from silent mode automatically
