Re: TA is obsessed with CBTC, and ''New'' tech for no reason.

Posted by Jeff H. on Wed Mar 5 00:15:35 2008, in response to Re: TA is obsessed with CBTC, and ''New'' tech for no reason., posted by Stephen Bauman on Tue Mar 4 15:39:17 2008. edf40wrjww2msgDetail:detailStr fiogf49gjkf0d Emergency braking stopping distance with 35% safety factor: @25 mph - 193.1 ft; @30 mph - 279.1; @35 mph - 379.8; @40 mph - 496.1; @45 mph - 627.9. Something is wrong with the math, then. The design number which is ACTUALLY used by NYCT in laying out signals is an actual emergency braking distance of 437 feet on level tangent track. Adding a 35% safety gives 590 feet, not 496.
