6) Rolling Stock
Schedule 13.2 report - MTIN Performance report
JD noted that MTIN is Miles per technical incident. A technical incident is if it causes delay of 3 min or more. MTIN value is dependent on the miles covered. This means a better value is given the longer the distance the train travels. If millage is low a small number of incidents can give higher MTIN value.
SP will report feedback from remedial plan forum into this meeting.
JD noted that some things effect the PPM and MTIN that are out with SR control such as overhead lines going down. This can sometimes take time to be correctly allocated through the delay attribution system.
For period 11 - 99.9 % of services had 2 members of staff. TS commended ScotRail for this coverage of trains
