I wonder why she did. If it was something the company made her do then she may have a get-out clause.
However if she did it of her own volition and the company accommodated her because she had difficulty organising her home life then she hasn't really got a leg to stand on.
Fatigue management is one of the biggest difficulties for traincrew. It's the responsibility of the individual to ensure that they have sufficient rest before each shift. This is often very hard for people with a family.

So she'd already had a previous incident of the same type - and within her first two months on the job ? Hmm I think her line manager will also have some explaining to do to.
