ORR’s work on train dispatch safety

"The onus is on all train operators to continuously improve safety.  We made a number of recommendations in our report to support this and will be carrying out further work on train dispatch. This will include the Secretary of State’s request to develop a set of principles for continuous improvement which all train operators must follow where Driver Only Operation is in operation or is being introduced. In developing these principles we will, as with our work to date, welcome the involvement of train operators and the unions."
