One of the things the unions will either have to start to understand or learn the hard way is that if they price themselves out of the market, ZPTO (or what I like to call Fully Automated Subway Trains) will become a reality lots sooner. The technology for FAST is already here and being used. In fact, even if the unions don't go out of the way to price themselves out of the market, clearly manual operation of trains is an endangered species. Token booths are already mostly relics, toll booths are on their way out-- technology is pushing out unskilled labor all over the place. |
