Re: San Rafael, Novato SMART BART

When they first put BART in, their trains would vanish on the dispatchers board. I was joke. (The Key System trains worked great with Cab Signals & ATS controls only about 10 years earlier) They had planned not to have anybody on the trains but had to put a person on the lead motor to make sure the doors were closed and it was okay to go and watch the signals and speed. They also installed some sort of scrubbers.

I think the operators are still on board but they don't control the train like an operator, just a "Just In Case" person.

Anyone else?
