Perhaps Mr Wombat ain't in a position to post under his real name.

It is a fact of life that Railway Organisations generally doesn't like
people knowing of their inner workings posting possibly sensitive
details on aus.rail. I remember the witchunt after one particular post I
made.  A VRTC employee accusing innocent employees of other
organisations etc...

What are the real facts then?  Neither side is going to be exactly
forthcoming, are they.  You have to remember VLP *allegedly* tried to
get Ch 10 to edit the sequence out of the episode.

Reporting VLP's manoeuvrings 'trial by internet'?

Just because this episode hasn't been aired yet, doesn't mean the
details can't propagate along the grapevine...

P.S. I did notice that last Saturday he was signing TRB's, working Staff
& Ticket, and operating a Trolley, apparently by himself, I hope the WA
Accreditation people aren't as jumpy has here in Victoria :o)

P.P.S. Wouldn't it be nice if the results of Boards or Inquiry were
publicly available?  Then we wouldn't have to rely on Rumour for the
details...:o)
