NI Railways - Better Service - Trains Cleaning
Train Cleaning
Train Cleaning Crew
As part of the new rail service NI Railways prepared a new strategy to train cleaning. The first step was the appointment of a Train Presentation Manager. Maybin Cleaning Services was then appointed as the new supplier and specialist rail consultants, Catalyst Rail Training, were brought in to develop new standards and checklists and to train the cleaning staff. Train cleaning has seen a stepped improvement since this time. In the last ‘Passenger’s Charter’ monitoring research, carried out independently by PriceWaterhouse Coopers (PWC), NI Railways was delighted to see that our customers markedly increased the ratings given for train cleanliness.
