EAST Midlands Railway (EMR) bosses stood accused by the RMT union today of “playing fast and loose” with Covid-19 safety over the bank holiday weekend. Serious overcrowding at London’s St Pancras station and on trains across the franchise’s network were cited by the union as evidence that passenger and staff safety are of little concern to the company, as it “repeated the mistakes” the union said were made in December. RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said: “Either through incompetence, or a safety culture coming a distant second to the culture of corporate greed, trains across the network are being reported as over capacity, with zero social distancing.”
