Of the line, running underneath central london, the £1 billion fleet of trains are almost entirely automated. this is a dream come true. setting off from stations at the push of a button. once you are ready, check monitors again, press start, and the train will take off. that's it. laughs. that's so surreal! in the central section, trains and signals communicate with each other automatically, meaning trains can run faster and much closer together than if driven manually, allowing an increased service frequency. we are running 12 trains an hour, and the reason we can drive the trains a lot fas...

When it begins fully operating as a single line next year it will be a 73—mile railway, carrying an estimated 500,000 passengers a day. in the core section of the line, running underneath central london, the £1 billion fleet of trains are almost entirely automated. this is a dream come true. setting off from stations at the push of a button. once you are ready, check monitors again, press start, and the train will take off. that's it. laughs. that's so surreal! in the central section, trains and signals communicate with each other automatically, meaning trains can run faster and much closer...

That's it. that's so surreal! in the central section, trains and signals communicate with each other automatically, meaning trains can run faster and much closer together than if driven manually, allowing an increased service frequency. we are running 12 trains an hour, and the reason we can drive the trains a lot faster is because the computer controlling it is maintaining the distance between the trains ahead. so there is always a safe gap between them all, which can't be maintained on the normal network because of where the signalling system is set up. now, it has been a bumpy ride to get t...

And much closer together than if driven manually, allowing an increased service frequency. we are running 12 trains an hour, and the reason we can drive the trains a lot faster is because the computer controlling it is maintaining the distance between the trains ahead. so there is always a safe gap between them all, which can't be maintained on the normal network because of where the signalling system is set up. now, it has been a bumpy ride to get to this point. when construction began way back in 2009, it was europe's biggest infrastructure project. but it was beset by problems, and has open...
