Don't give me this crap about t/o's phobia of confronting passengers and the fumigation policy. The passengers did it to themselves by assaulting t/o's, especially females when they relay trains, and by pulling emergency cords when they get confused that the train suddenly changed directions.

The G relays being discussed here would be in regular service. The train would be filled with passengers who are expecting the direction change. This is not the same encounter that might be expected during a relay after a terminal station.

I was a t/o for 33 years. If I was afraid of passengers or had a phobia I would of had no business in doing what I did for so long.

Evidently your successors have a more than slightly different opinion. :=)

The cost associated with fumigation is a drastically reduced terminal capacity. That reduced terminal capacity is reflected in fewer and more crowded trains.
