Bio
Michael Maddox
I worked with Jo through sharing of good practice in dispatch of slam door trains, as First Great Western and East Coast both still run this type of stock. I worked with Jo again at an ATOC working group for ERTMS introduction, and how this will impact on train dispatch arrangements. Jo is an experienced operator with a good knowledge of safety critical operating standards, and has a good understanding of risks and control measures around station dispatch, in particular, how this relates to the Train Guards role. Jo is extremely professional in her approach and working with her to share good practice around station safety has been a very beneficial experience.
