Outcry over 'see-through' uniforms for women train staff who claim people can see their underwear

Avanti West Coast has been called on by Transport and travel union TSSA to abandon plans to bring in what it claims are "see through" uniforms.

It said there had been an outcry from female members of staff surrounding the uniforms which are due to be rolled out at the end of Easter. Women have claimed the uniforms are made from 'very cheap material' allowing their bras to be seen from the back and the front.

But according to Avanti, which runs services between London and North Wales, there were no issues raised during a trial of the new uniforms which it said conformed with international standards of grading quality. It added that staff also had the option to wear alternatives like polo shirts. You can get more news like this and other story updates by subscribing to our newsletters here.
