Over here in the UK single man in the cab is nearly the norm, certainly there are no train orders or such or dark areas, we also do haul the tonnage and issues like broken knuckles are virtually unheard off, GNER [Great North Eastern Railways] run 125mph passenger trains non stop York to london approx 200 miles in approx 2 hours in track that is nearly at capacity with one man in the cab. Freightliner run one man with the engineer [driver over here] having to drive, switch, couple etc all on his own on most instances. So no doubt there will be people over there saying that if they do it so can we.
