Sadly, we will be going the way of the caboose. OPTO (One Person Train Operation) is the way of the future only because of the cost saving measures it provides. It is already a fact on many transit systems, much of which are operated by Computer Based Train Control (CBTC) with the "operator" there only as a safety prcaution to overide the system in case of emergency. The question of safety is irrelevent in the eyes of management.
