Responding to the RMT’s statement today on the ScotRail franchise, Charlotte Twyning, Director of Policy, Strategy and Communications for Abellio, said:
“We are committed to the ScotRail franchise and to delivering for Scotland. The RMT is completely wrong to state that money is being taken out of Scotland - on the contrary, we have invested in a headquarters in Glasgow and a customer service centre in Fort William, creating and maintaining jobs. Under the Abellio franchise, ScotRail is a Living Wage employer. The truth is our people are working hard - with the Scottish Government and Transport Scotland - to improve customer service during a sustained and significant period of railway modernisation and this kind of statement does nothing at all to help passengers or staff.”
