Axing of guards needs consensus, says train boss
Conrad Landin reports from Glasgow
RAIL bosses seeking to axe guards from trains should not impose changes on workers and their unions, ScotRail chief executive Alex Hynes has suggested.
The Morning Star can reveal today that Mr Hynes has called on bosses to “take our people and their representatives with us.”
His comments were welcomed by rail union RMT leader Mick Cash, who called on operators still in dispute over the issue to “get out of the bunker.”
