I see what you are getting at. I considered in my previous post the need for trains to be separated from each other. Improvements in GPS will help that.

Your question regarding stations is a good one. I would say that currently and in the immediate future at least, wayside equipment at the station would be necessary to assure the train's proper and safe arrival.

Suppose we had a 10 mph- accurate GPS. Take a stretch of track three miles long between stations. It seems to me that we could be able to operate a commuter rail service there with GPS beteen thestations but wayside equipment at the stations.
