2026 Pay Award

[Starmill]

The Guardian suggests today that LNER and Avanti West Coast drivers are likely to be moving towards a dispute over this subject. I'd quote, but it's completely absent in details, and the article isn't one of their better ones, as this is all jumbled up with issues of fleet availability which affects EMR and not Avanti West Coast / LNER in anything like the same way. So instead I'll just open the question, are those outstanding items?

Any updates on GTR (Thameslink) driver pay deal ? Can anyone tell me what was proposed? Thanks

Hi everyone. Does anybody know whether Crosscountry train managers have had a payrise recently, or if not, whether they're likely to receive one soon?

Many thanks

It's crazy that my TOC's management have already got a payrise, but platform staff etc still haven’t. And the % they have offered is less than management. Seems unfair to me.
