Doc Frank chats with Barry West from London, England. Barry is a trainer for train drivers and has notably been involved in the driver training for the London Thameslink project which features Automatic Train Operation (ATO) over ETCS. The conversation suggests a curious parallel between Formular One car racing and ATO for trains and lots of other interesting aspects of automatic train driving.
Show notes for better understanding:
1) Information about training courses for advanced signalling technologies that are proven to work for railway professionals regardless of their prior extent of signalling knowledge, including the CBTC Kickstarter and ETCS Kickstarter trainings, can be found on https://docfranktraining.podia.com.
Otherwise, the interview is rather self-explanatory and very instructive.
