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.ZPTO's cost depends on its implementation. Thus far, the CBTC/ATO approach is a financial bust to the operator. (It's great for the vendor.) The artificial intelligence (AI) advances have given the advantage autonomous operation. The railroad industry is slow to recognize technological trends. The MTA is even slower. technology is pushing out unskilled labor all over the place. It's also pushing out skilled labor. |
