Posted by tracksionmotor on Fri Mar 23 20:57:41 2007, in response to Conductor opened the wrong side, posted by gbs on Wed Mar 21 13:03:52 2007. Concept is that T/O and Conductor act as a crew with T/O engaging 'door enabler' as 'observer.' Door enabler is part of R142 OPTO system which has more than once opened the doors on the wrong side.....human error (it's logged in computer!)Thre HAD been plans to equip all DC trainsets with 'door enabler controls' but cheaper to force T/O and Conductor to 'stick their heads out.' One Conductor was found unconcious after meeting a sock full of coins....another died striking a fence at the end of a platform elected for construction work. Two items of note: Redbirds could engage 'indication' with a large object trapped in door by passenger jogging (PSS) and R142s can 'lock-pin' doors upon clothing engaging 'indication.' CREW OBSERVANCE IS THE RULE. RRCI Pet |
