Have not been able to read much on how this train will be operated. It is mentioned driverless!!. Does it mean that nobody will be manning and operating controls in engine ?//
What happens in case of any emergency stoppage and re-start again? Would be good to hear this aspect as well. Also there will be few sections where certain speed limits have to be maintained ( slowing down and then again speeding up). How will all of this work ?

Sorry i meant engineless....so this seems to be somewhat of a bigger kind of EMU concept. But as long as it runs fine should be ok.....but if there is a hitch in the engine itself, i dont think there is a option of replacing engine unlike the conventional train set up where we do see engines being replaced in case of issues
