Re: SMART One person crews

Does Mike Pechner or anyone else know answers to these questions?
Does SMART's union agreement allow one person to operate the trains?
I thought FRA regulations require two person crew on Caltrain and other commuter rail. Is that true or is there an exception for two or three car trains?
If they went to one person would the trains have to be modified to allow doors to opened by the engineer?
I believe they're now set up to be opened by conductor inside the passenger section.
With one person crew would they have roaming fare inspectors/police on board for all or part of the ride?
