NSW Trains Members – RTBU New Intercity Fleet (NIF) Tour

To: NSW Train Guards

Bulletin 43/2018

The RTBU Locomotive and Operations Divisions will be conducting a tour of NSW Trains InterCity areas to discuss with members aspects of the New InterCity Fleet (NIF) introduction, including the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to provide Members with an update on the process so far.

At this stage, NSW Trains management is refusing to allow your Officials to enter your workplace to provide you with this information.

We view the refusal by NSW Trains to allow your Elected Representatives access to your workplace to talk to you, as a sign that their commitment to an open and transparent process is one sided and not in the best interest of their workforce.

The RTBU are committed to an open and transparent process.

In light of the above, the RTBU has organised venues at a location close to your Home Depot.

• Gosford, (Gosford Golf Club, Links Room) Mon 2^nd July, 1000-1400.
• Newcastle, (Newcastle Cruising Yacht Club, Hannell St, Wickham) Tues 3^rd July, 1000-1400.
• Moss Vale, (outside Station) Wednesday 4^th July, 0800-1000.
• Wollongong, (RTBU, Wollongong Office) Wednesday 4^th July, 1100-1400.
• Lithgow, (Club Lithgow, Lithgow St) Thursday 5^th July, 0930-1200.
• Mt Victoria, (Patrick St) Thursday 5^th July, 1230-1400.
• Springwood, (Oriental Hotel, Macquarie Rd) Thursday 5^th July, from 1600.
• Sydney, (Rendezvous Hotel, cnr George and Quay St) Friday 6^th July, 1000-1400.

This is your chance to talk to your RTBU representatives about matters that are critical for your future. NSW Trains proposals for the introduction of the New InterCity Train will have a lasting effect on your career.

The RTBU look forward to the chance to meet and speak with members and encourage their attendance at these important meetings.
