There are no bells on the cars. When
all of the doors have been closed, as
the train prepares to leave a station,
a signal is flashed TO the motorman
and the start is made with no danger
10 anyone. The conductor explained to
me at length Of how all possibility eff
q collision was avoided by a system Of
block signals. but his technical terms
only served to bewilder me. so | pro-
ceeded to forget them.
| do remember thai when one train
passese a signal it drops a ''trippsr."
This "%tripper" trips the next train, and
before the latter car start its conductor
must get of the car and pun it (the
"tripper') up. And there is no danger
of tripping up on this system. IL
works like magic now, though at frss
1t presented come serious problems.
The trains are supplied with emergency
ropes, to be pulled only in time OF dan
ger, when the motorman will suspend
the power Immediately.
Apparently there Is no danger to
anyone, except the track workmen. Ii
a train should come upon them sud
denly they would have a lively scram-
Bile to mount the tiny ledge at the side
of the tunnel where they would have
to crouch until the danger was past.
There is little room between the trains
and the tunnels, which arc oval, just
allowing the cars to fit in smoothly.
