A Train Technician - employed by the Infraco's to resolve Fleet
problems "on the road".
They are sometimes still referred to as Fitters, Car/Train Maintainers
and Car/Train Examiners.

Train Operators that come from lines with new stock like the Jubilee
and Northern have a big shock when arriving on an old fashioned line
like the Metropolitan. There are more switches and handles rather than
a computer. If you take the key out of an A Stock, without the Parking
Brake on, it WILL roll away.
