So, the running joke becomes true after all. What CBTC truly stands for:CBTC = Catch Bus to Canarsie CBTC = Catch Bus to Corona And now... CBTC = Catch Bus to Continental So there's the answer, very little investment was made into an override incase of signal failure. This was doomed from the start. Some thought they learned after taking most of the signals off the Canarsie line, although Transit never learns in some ways it seems. Better hope these systems are EMP proof or they'll be the first to stop working (immediately) if something like that were to happen. Nice to know they're investing millions into a signal system that is designed to fail in some ways. |
