Married rail union boss heads off to first official meeting since affair with train driver exposed
Married rail union boss Dicky Fisher steams off for his first official meeting since his affair with a fellow official was revealed by The Sun.
The 62-year-old district organiser has been enjoying a fling with train driver Kerry Cassidy, 43, as strikes and an overtime ban cause misery for passengers.
He was snapped in Birmingham where he was on business for driver’s union ASLEF believed to be a training weekend.
It is understood Fisher’s wife Nancy suspected his affair had been going on for up to a year.
He and Cassidy have met at hotels paid for by the union, and a flat which it owns in London.
A witness said: “If the revelation affected him it didn’t show.

Fisher, of Leighton Buzzard, Beds, has spent 11 years in his £90,000-a-year role.
He is pals with Aslef General Secretary Mick Whelan and ex-Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn.
Cassidy is a Labour councillor in Liskeard, Cornwall, and recently separated from town mayor Simon Cassidy.
