Looks like these problems may soon no longer be confined to planes but, to trains also......
Ex-Qantas manager to review Sydney rail services
Posted July 30, 2007 14:00:00
A former Qantas manager has been appointed to review maintenance procedures within RailCorp.
The management of RailCorp and unions are continuing to work through a series of issues in a bid to resolve a dispute over rail maintenance.
The New South Wales Transport Minister, John Watkins, says the appointment of Keith Clark will bring experience in maintenance procedures from the world's safest airline.
"[He] recently retired [as] general manager of heavy maintenance at Qantas has been appointed by the government to look at a number of matters over the next three months," he said.
"[They include] the maintenance procedures, the management, the performance outcomes [and] work force capability. [They have been asked to] come forward with a blueprint to really improve the output from those public sector maintenance yards."
Good luck to all in Sydney Rail!
