Also, the station has had a lot of press with the extended reach of the line and the increased frequency of the services. The old adage, "if it 'aint broke don't fix it" seems to ring true here. An agreement that has worked for 30 years is now being ripped up and the workers clearly - if under threat of losing their job, are going to be more than a little cautious with new contracts.
Think about the bigger picture guys, if you want the professionals to continue then don't treat them like monkeys would be my advice.
