No, Train Drivers and Train Guards do not require 14 days notice for roster
changes. They work off amended working to their normal diagrams/ rosters or
work the additional shifts as required. In fact, Train Crew are very
flexible and the special events timetable for Olympic Park would not run as
smoothly as they have, if it were not for this flexibility.
