"Resignaling a line under revenue service is no bed of roses," Mr. Mura said, using a term for trains that are carrying passengers. He said that only a few other cities, including Hong Kong, had tried to replace a signaling system on an active line.

That's BS, the Philly MSL was resignaled while the line was in service and there were few if any disruptions. The problem is this stupid CBTC thing. They should have just moved to a cab signal system like just about every other transit system uses. It involves less hardware that can fail, provides just as much capability for ATO and is a proven technolocy that's been in use since the BART and the DC Metro.
