Title: Staff shortages in the west? Post by: Zoe on June 27, 2018, 19:01:46 In the last two weeks or so I have noticed:
Barriers not in use at Newton Abbot, ticket office closed. Trains self-dispatching from platforms 1 and 2 at Newton Abbot (although there was a member of staff present helping with enquiries and shutting doors on the HSTs). Both platforms at Totnes unstaffed. I know there have been ongoing issues with traincrew as discussed in another thread but was surprised by the lack of staff at stations which always seemed to be well staffed.
