uh, helrow......that's what we're saying. Read the thing I showed you. The train conductor is a mere observer......

The trains are automatic.

They can if the computer system is smart enough;)

a computer can't read a human signal. what if there are 2, 3 trains approaching, which train is the human signaling to slow, or stop? These all require human interpretation.
