LMAO @VirginTrains how TF can your driver go AWOL?! #euston #getmetomanchester
Since there is no obligation to work overtime, do you really believe it is correct to blame your drivers publicly? @RMTunion
Sudden? You mean you don’t schedule things to allow for rest periods? You want drivers to be suffering from fatigue? Thought about that?
