On work-to-rule

May 12, 2014
Office trains are likely to get delayed today owing the work-to-rule action launched by locomotive drivers, retaliating against being held responsible for train accident by the General Manager of Sri Lanka Railways (SLR).
The decision taken by the Locomotive Operations Engineers' Union, will see locomotive drivers strictly adhering to the rules and regulations, which is likely to result in a number of trains being delayed.
Locomotive drivers have also asked for police protection after several drivers were attacked by angry passengers. Police protection has now been provided to the drivers.
