The anticipated construction and expansion of rail rapid transit systems in the United States over the next 10-15 years implies major capital expenditures. A significant level of automation in train control is likely to be central to these systems. The potential safety problems associated with various implementation alternatives, several possible levels of automation, and uncertainty in the corresponding proper role of the human operator raise issues requiring timely resolution. The report describes the state-of -the-art in rail rapid transit system automatic train control, assesses the safety related interrelations between the train control system, functions of the human operator and other portions of the total system, and makes recommendations to aid the process of planning, funding approval, design, implementation, test, safety certification and operation of new systems or modifications of existing systems.
