Historique
Alan Payling was a bus driver for London Transport during the 1980's, based at Stamford Hill Bus Garage. In 1981/82, Payling was on the branch committee of Stamford Hill Bus Garage trade union, TGWU Branch 1/312, responsible for "Education and Information" and appointed a "Fare Fight Delegate" (ACC/3029/7). He was responsible for the distribution and reception of various trade union, transport and local community leaflets and magazines.
The Public Transport Workers Jobs Campaign (Leaside District) ran a printing workshop and resource centre which were used by individual trade union branches such as Finsbury Park NUR and Wood Green ASLEF (see annual report 1985/86 (ACC/3029/17)). The resource centre held material necessary to those campaigning in the transport industry and included GLC, LRT and TGWU material.
The Busworker group began as part of the campaign against one person operation of buses (OPO) in 1982/83. It derived partly from the LT worker group which was set up in 1982 to fight the proposed loss of jobs/services after the "Fares Fair" campaign. The Transport Worker (which incorporated Busworker Monthly) was a joint rail and bus newsletter for the dissemination of trade union information to all sections of London Transport. Alan Payling was on the editorial board of Transport Worker.
