It'll never happen, you'll have maglev railways first.

No computer would work on grounds of cost, maintenance, upkeep costs and the day to day reality of main line railway operations.


If you had one you'd still need someone in the front, you do on aircraft, you do in an automated automobile, so ergo, what is the point ?

And do you know what ? I don't consider myself anything special, crikey, I even have a cup of tea with the platform staff and the cleaners and everything !!!!!!!! It's a job, and if I won the lottery tomorrow, I'd be off to a Greek Island with no railway on the very first plane, forever.

So with 455driver's occupation and source of mortgage repayments being train driving, he is not allowed to comment on a discussion about driverless trains? Confusing stuff.

I am getting to the point where I am sick to the back teeth with the 'usual suspects' hijacking every bloody thread to tell us all how good these computermebobs are and how we are all about to be made redundant by a ZX81!

We get it, you love computers, do you have to tell us 20 times a day on 15 different threads completely unrelated to train driving! :roll:

It has happened once in the last month, and it was this thread. Then everyone else joined in. But no, that's too much for you apparently.

I am sick of you hijacking threads you don't like and making them all about you, too. The difference being that we were having a productive discussion about automated systems which developed nicely out of a thread about route knowledge. All you've done is moan, complain and throw accusations around. There's a bit of a difference!

Not everything has to be about you, and not everything has to be approved by you to be talked about on this forum. Is it really that hard to understand?
