Question

With railway catering how often do they dust the sandwiches?

Answer 1

Rather less often than this ancient music hall joke. It might have been funny in 1950.

Answer 2

I thought the sandwiches were the dusters.

Ooops.

Answer 3

Mr King. The sandwiches on todays railway are of better quality AND fresher than the prepack stuff from most sandwich retailers. Sandwiches have a ONE DAY shelf life and then they are binned.

Answer 4

Whenever a train runs on time. In other words, not too often!

Answer 5

I don't think they do...they eventually become crusty rolls...

Answer 6

every few months as laid down in the br journal

Answer 7

Of course, you can't dust the egg mayonnaise sandwiches. They have to be sandblasted, but only on the first tuesday following the full moon.

Answer 8

In the case of UK companies, never.  The sandwiches are pre-packed in sealed plastic containers, which are dustproof.

Answer 9

As often as needed, but in no case shall they go undusted longer than 30 days from the date of making.  This is 30 calendar days, not working days, except that if the 30th day falls on a holiday which is federally recognized, the dusting can take place on the following day without penalty.

It is also recommended, although not required that after the first 30 day dusting they be turned over.  Note that turning over without dusting is not allowed and can lead to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal for cause.
