Best if all trains operate at the design speed for each segment of track.

Achievable only on an electrified rapid transit line; where the operator, literally, only closes the doors. What lines, if any, operate this way? I've seen it.

Yes, the operator is still paid to look out ahead; firstly for his own preservation.

Before chain-link fences were built too high, white goods (from kitchens) were "air mailed".

Do any transit lines have snowplows on their lead trucks?
