So how do we find out about this, bugger all on the TfL site. That Ken
really is a smart cookie. Called for Metronet to go bankrupt, got what
he wanted and what is the first thing that the cretins in the union
do.
I'd say that they got exactly what they deserved, or what Ken wished
upon them.

You never know before the day.
However I doubt that any service will operate on Metronet lines. If
the trains can be prepped for service there will be no-one (apart from
Managers, and thats i they turn up) to get trains into and out of
depots, (except Neasden as that is LUL). If a Signal Failure or
Defective Train occurs what then?


Also, it does has the capability to affect all lines, if there is no-
one in the Fault Report Centre, or they become over-whelmed


Dont expect TfL (Kens 2nd Press Office) to say anything useless,
except blame everything other than Ken


I have been led to belive that there will be disruption on the Jubilee
as some trains come out of Neasden and it will be picketed.
Just wonder why there is, apparantly, nothing being quoted publicly.


Kevin


I doubt that Tube Lines will have trouble prepping their trains there.
This will be the only depot that will be able to send trains out and
take them back. Thats if Metronet can offer them for service.
Disruption may also occur on other lines where Metronet are the
Infraco for part of the line or control centre.- Hide quoted text -

But will the Jubilee drivers cross the picket lines.
