Whilst walking out of the sidings along designated official walkways, the operator was tripped and resulted in a broken ankle. Upon investigation it was found the walkway was inadequate for space, lighting and poorly maintained (hence the "WAS tripped"). Remedial work has been done since investigation but it is still deemed to be unsafe by the membership. Trains can reverse via sidings but trains operators do not finish in the sidings, which would necessitate walking away from the train. This Management hash up is due to be resolved very soon. Cheers.

Since 2013 it's been run by Briggs Marine, who I think are Scottish. No idea if there are any visible changes on the ground as I moved away from Woolwich shortly afterwards (for entirely unrelated reasons I should add!)Chris Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05644147994206435357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6704342683198287523.post-75368613444554211292015-01-31T12:33:32.048+00:002015-01-31T12:33:32.048+00:00As the subtitle says "Observations and opinio...As the subtitle says "Observations and opinions of a Central Line Train Driver", I didn't know about any trouble on the District Line until you mentioned it.
