Sydney Trains Dispute Win: Altered Working Extra Kilometres

The Locomotive Division wishes to advise members of the positive outcome to an outstanding dispute regarding non-payment of extra kilometres on altered working.

This dispute arose at Penrith Depot after Sydney Trains ceased paying extra kilometre claims on particular jobs.
