Remote Control Shoving Platforms

Mike Kieran Wrote:This is where it would make sense to have a remote controlled caboose operating in a push-pull capacity. If it's a unit train running the same cars, you could conceivably run the MU lines the length of the train and operate the caboose as a cab car, just like on commuter trains (which operate with the engine pushing at high speeds).
Why would you need MU lines running the length of the train? You simply need a radio control system to operate the locomotives if indeed you had a set up like this. Today's DPU trains and the older Locotrol system operate by radio signals.
