Title: Institution of Railway Operators Post by: grahame on May 15, 2018, 15:41:56 At http://www.railwayoperators.co.uk :
Quote The Institution of Railway Operators exists to advance and promote the safe, reliable and efficient operation of the railways, by improving the technical and general skills, knowledge and competence of those engaged in the operation of the railways. New one on me .... have I had my head in the sand to have missed them, or are they very professional specific and don't reach passenger / community groups?

New one on me .... have I had my head in the sand to have missed them, or are they very professional specific and don't reach passenger / community groups? All I've heard of them doing is training and, specifically, defining and granting professional qualifications of a yes, very specialised and vocational kind.

Shurely shome mistake here. I thought the figure in recent months was nearer 15.

Shurely shome mistake here. I thought the figure in recent months was nearer 15. What is the problem? You say '1 point 500' not '1 comma 500' so 1.5 trains a day meets your experience.

Isn't that already called GWR ??

Isn't that already called GWR ?? Definitely needs protecting. Seen so rarely many think he may even be extinct!
