It states in the Transport Committee report of June 2003 that: Are train doctors the rolling stock engineers that work in line control centres advising line controllers as to what faulty trains might be and was this practise only started after the events of Chancery Lane? There are three grades in maintenance. Train Maintainer, Advanced Train Maintainer and Train Doctor/Engineer. Basically TM's do planned work, ATM's do the more involved work, and if the ATM's can't do it the train doctors have a look. Ohhh that's for that I was under the impression that there was just train engineers didn't know it was that involved thanks 👍 |

Can we discuss train maintenance grades elsewhere please.
This is the second reminder to keep this thread on topic. Thanks.

The Waterloo and City line has more Civilised City Banker office worker types travelling on it - that is probably why they still have the armrests intact - City Banker office worker types tend to be more well behaved by their nature!

Civilised? Are you having a giraffe? I've been to quite a few "after work parties" involving city banker office worker types and believe me they were very far from civilised.........in fact some of it would have been regarded as unbroadcastable, even by Channel 5.  |

Maybe it's a different class of undesirable? Maybe the W&C is more plagued by your obnoxious and loud "I behave like an idiot after work on a Friday" compared to the Central's "let's do a bit of vandalism" type! |

Leaving uneaten dinners on the seats for the 'butlers' to clean up are a norm. They are far less civil with each other and forget getting a seat in peak of pregnant, disabled or less able. Often have to make them aware of them in morning peak |

Rarely a day goes by that I don't have to flick an MCBs or switch to fix a problem, though rarely on W&C line, that said, we do have our problem units that are regularly taken out of service down there. This morning was operating on a 4 train peak service |
