Also lets say
Driver spends 10-15 mins trying to fix the fault
Calls the Depot 5mins
Mechanic 60-90 Mins to come
Try to fix the fault 10-20 Mins
Call recovery 45-90 mins
That adds up.
It does, but like I say, you could have the same scenario 5 minutes from the depot, depending on how long it takes recovery to turn up.
Unless GNE had a fleet of tow trucks, strategically placed around the network, then you're never going to be able to control the recovery time. The fitter will still be tied up dealing with the job.
