Current RSSB MFS • GO/RT3451 and GO/RC3561 contain requirements and guidance for: • Train dispatch staff • Drivers • Shunters • Competent persons
Questions • Are the changes well understood? • Do duty holders define additional fitness requirements when needed? • Is any additional guidance needed? • Would appendices to 3561 be better in a separate guidance document that can develop over time?
