One of the earliest examples of ATO was on the Victoria Line of London Underground , opened in 1968 . The ATO system performs all functions of the driver except for the closing of the doors. The driver only needs to press two buttons to close the doors and if the way is clear, then the train will automatically proceeed to the next station. Many newer systems are now computer-controlled, including London's Docklands Light Railway , the Central Line , Line 14 of the Paris Métro, Hong Kong MTR , West Rail , Ma On Shan Rail and a number of ART - and VAL -based systems. |
