Management accused of dirty tricks

TRAIN drivers in Cork yesterday accused management of dirty tricks over replacing old carriages with new ones without their knowledge.

Drivers insisted they had received insufficient training to deal with the new carriages, which are being hooked up to standard Iarnród Éireann locomotives.

One said yesterday: “We had a meeting with management scheduled for tomorrow and we had asked them not to use the new carriages until then but they brought them in this morning.
