Presumably, every automated train will brake and accelerate exactly the same way every time...There are ways humans can operate trains within 15 seconds of a schedule that is free of merging conflicts. Some methods use feedback that enables an operator to compare his time to what's expected. It's it's inexpensive to build and operate, so the MTA would not be interested. Tokyo just trains its operators to be accurate to within a second. That saves the cost of equipping the system with inexpensive feedback devices. |
