Mr. Randall W, having observed a wheelchair passenger boarding and alighting (there is a fairly regular disabled rider here I have observed from a distance), I think handling such a passenger results in some three minutes station (dwell) time.
Lest we note, there are also like requirements overseas regarding accessibility. Hi-level platforms are found only in the UK (nowhere on the Continent to my knowledge), so any equipment designed "over there" has their varietal of ADA in mind.
Furthermore, I THINK under existing Labor Agreements, the Train Crew consist for a three car DMU set is Conductor only, but I'm ready to stand corrected by those with contemporary industry affiliation, as distinct from my 42 year "post partem".
But since Messrs. Olesen, Lurker, Dominik, and myself all the pay the "Mass Transportation Tax" (incorporated into the "sales Tax") anytime we buy anything, our views I'd hope can be considered.
