Of course it's possible. In Japan, they installed the current ATS-P on steam locomotives so they can run again in normal service hours. Of course, there's nothing ATO there.As for museum trains in Paris, the way they run them now is pretty much run the same way way as when they run regular trains in manual mode, following wayside signals. Since CBTC is linked with wayside signals and the train sensors on fixed blocks, they can run mixed with ATO trains. The only difference is since the museum trains don't have deadman or train stops (as in trip cocks) of any kind, they require two drivers in the cab, the second driver being the human deadman system. I don't think Paris will bring moving blocks to every line. They haven't even put ATO on the less busy lines. Museum trains can run on those lines then. |
