  • You said it goes up to 80 miles/hour? That's intense. Subways here only hit 50 kilometers a hour...ehh thats around 30 miles/hour and we still get derailments.

  • ALOT of money goes into keeping BART safe and ontime

  • is BART controlled by computers? what does the driver have to do?

  • Autopilot for normal operation.. Manual for when stuff goes wrong....

  • How do you get hired on as a train operator?

  • @4squier4 4 Concord, Hayward, Richmond and Daly City

  • AS far as speeds are concerned D.C. has BART beat. Above ground the trains do 90. They no longer allow passengers to see the readouts (I saw it in the mid 80's). Here in NY the trains are limited to 50 because the tracks will not allow faster speeds and most stations are too close together to allow the acceleration and safe braking, but they are working on that with unit welding all of the tracks and replacing the signal system for faster service.

  • That's the yellow line!!! :D I go on yellow line every mornIng starting at north cconcord to orinda and back!

  • @unionpacificrr Yes it is controlled by computers, the operator does not have to do much...

  • @itberuuuubert Laugh out loud you cannot get fired for this!

  • @CoCoEMT wow, i;d kinda hate that because you can get bored, and you can't even go on your phone or anything cuz you have to pay attention lol. had you ever been tierd and being afraid to fall asleep?

  • @thepostfk But the crap that is on history channel today is about all sorts of crap like did Jesus marry Mary Magdalene, how did that universe form? and all sorts of other crap. I just wish it could just be documentaries like the history of Disney, railroading, or any of that sort. That's right, get a life history channel! :p

  • Lol can't you get fired for this?

  •  And their extensions to suburbia
