Re: VR Staff & Ticket and Pilot Working



GOD doth spaketh thus:

<<<<<The Pilotman was supposed to wear a blue "PILOTMAN" armband on the right
arm above the elbow. A standard joke in safeworking courses was to ask
the question "What must a Pilotman possess?", the answer being "A right
arm above the elbow.">>>>

Actually it was a red armband with white letters, maybe it was blue in the "R&R
lite" used by the tourist railroads and he was not "supposed" to wear he had to
wear it.

A bit of trivia, did you know that the driver diod not have the right to see
the pilotmans forms? I had a couple of good discussions with Alan Hales about
this and he insisted that the driver only had to see the armband!

Just cleaning up after GOD's drivel.

Mark.
