New Driveless (Tube) London Underground Trains

No surprise! A new driveless (tube) trains in London by the undergrounds.

Quote:
The fleet of 250 trains, which are not expected to be in service on the Tube until the mid-2020s, will start out with an operator on board, but will be designed and built to be “capable of fully automatic operation”.

The trains are part of what Mayor Boris Johnson has called the “New Tube for London”, the plans for which claim will increase the passenger capacity by thousands.

That is needed here in NYC. Those greedy unions want more and more $$ and the riders end up paying the price.
