RAIL commuters can brace for disruption on ScotRail services after a union voted for fresh strike action in a dispute over numbers of CCTV-monitoring staff. The TSSA has accused the train operator of a criminally negligent shortage of the specialist role, which it says is jeopardising security on the network. ScotRail said the changes would improve safety on the railways. The union said there had been bad management of a company-wide voluntary severance programme after it accepted applications from 17 of 22 specialist staff.
