Some of the EWS 'old boys' who wear a T shirt and jeans will be in for a bit of a culture shock then, if DB follows the current trend of dressing Freight Train Drivers to look like business men in a suit and tie - GBRf style.
Can you imagine sitting on a filty old ballast train at 3 AM, trying to get your head down but making sure you don't crease your suit or get dirt on it ? Crazy !
I remember when Connex first got their franchise. The uniform was b***dy awful, but I damaged my ribs laughing when they pushed the Fench theme too far and tried to make us wear Foreign Legion style Kepi hats.
Just like these splendid chaps

I wish I'd kept mine now, but sadly it fell under a train and got crushed. Oddly enough this happened to most of them.
