Willing and interested

on Friday last week, it became known the conflict escalate with six new lokførere on the Sørlandsbanen from Wednesday. The outlet is in Kristiansand city in order not to increase the pressure in southeastern norway further. Together will then 124 lokførere be on strike.

NSB says they are happy to meet lokførerne to see if it is possible to bring an end to the togstreiken.

– If it is true that they have a proposal, we are of course willing and interested in discussing this, says communications manager Åge-Christoffer Lundeby in the NSB the Norwegian broadcasting corporation NRK.

Pressure on the south-Eastern norway

The recent past has been characterized by full buses and long traffic jams on the pleasant hills at the gates to Oslo from Follo and Østfold – since all of the commuter train on Østfoldbanen is set. To usual these trains about 20,000 passengers daily.

Lokførerne will therefore have a requirement for a national standard for lokførerutdanningen into the collective agreement, while the NSB will wait for requirements from the authorities. (©NTB)
