Bakerloo strike over lone working Following a 94.5% yes vote to take strike action, drivers and detrainment workers on the Bakerloo line will be out this Friday to force management to withdraw their plans for ‘lone-working’. Detrainment staff, who check that trains are empty of passengers at the end of their route, currently work in groups of at least two in order to ensure their and passengers’ safety — and yet, at Harrow & Wealdstone and Willesden Junction stations, in an area where violent crime is 40% above the national average, security is being cut back.
