It shows we need a member of staff onboard, the driver can't stop to sort these things out
You mean the member of staff who used to deal with Fastrack, luggage etc...oh now what was he called ...a guard? I thought RUI favoured the skeletal approach adopted by IE - ATVMs, Eastern European security/toilet cleaners/gardeners to occasionally visit stations. The ostriches are coming home to roost!
