Wow.
And I thought I was the only person confused by this scenario.
Toonsie first comment seems the most logical…where everything up to and departing the train would be other work and the train would be POA.
POA makes sense on a train or coach as I have an absolute and proveable start and finish time for which I’m available but cannot work, or rest (no couchette).
I don’t see how other work applies as if I’m watching TV with my feet up and possibly with a beer as I’m clearly not doing anything work related.
If driving a small van counts as other work does that mean if I drive a hire car back from drop off that is also other work rather than driving?
Thanks for all your input.
I’m going to ask another Q in another post re weekly rests which may also divide opinions.
