If its NOT about saferty, why are they out on strike. I believe they are on strike as the Gova want to get rid of Guards.

Guards provide safety elemants and they open the doors. And make sure they look after the passenger

Its called safety. Yes, there are many trains, that have drivers only. But this is why the Government doesn't want to get involved. So that Gova can run rings round the Union. This wont happen.

IF, the RMT and ASLEF pulled all there workforce out. You cannot run the railways. Its that simple
