As there have been various technological improvements, human power is going to be less needed. Driverless trains are seen to be the latest achievement in railway industry. They prevent trains from accidents caused by human errors. Additionally, they increase punctuality, frequency and decrease energy consumption and human labour cost. On the other hand, almost all the worker unions are against keeping railway workers out of their works or switching to automation. Also, the potential dangers near the railway track can be seen by well-trained drivers but sometimes cannot be detected by computers although they have obstacle detection. Also, fully automated systems are vulnerable to cyber-attacks and must be protected very well. Besides, psychological surveys show that passengers get anxious when they cannot see any officer in train, so it makes people travel less comfortable. In this study, advantages, and disadvantages of running mainline trains driverless are given in detail, and suggestions are made on that the existing driverless metro trains should be watched and analyzed more also deeply to gain experiences.

Türkiye’de Tam Otomatik Sürücüsüz Anahat Treni Çalıştırılmasında Olası Fırsatlar ve Tehditler

Çeşitli teknolojik gelişmeler yaşandıkça insan gücüne daha az ihtiyaç duyulacağı aşikardır. Bu bağlamda, sürücüsüz trenler demiryolu endüstrisindeki son başarı olarak görülmektedir. Sürücüsüz trenler insan hatalarından kaynaklanan kazaların önlenmesinde, seferlerin dakikliği ve sıklığını artırmada, enerji tüketiminin ve insan işgücü maliyetinin azaltılmasında önemli rol oynamaktadır. Öte yandan işçi sendikalarının neredeyse tamamı, demiryolu işçilerinin işlerinden uzak tutulmasına ve otomasyona geçilmesine karşı çıkmaktadırlar. Ayrıca demiryolu hattı yakınındaki potansiyel tehlikeler iyi eğitimli sürücüler tarafından görülebilmekte fakat bazen engel algılama özelliğine sahip olmasına rağmen bilgisayarlar tarafından tespit edilememektedir. Ayrıca tam otomatik sistemler siber saldırılara karşı savunmasızdır ve çok iyi korunması gerekmektedir. Bununla birlikte psikolojik araştırmalar, yolcuların trende herhangi bir görevli göremedikleri zaman kaygılandıklarını ve bu durumun insanların yolculuklarının konfor seviyesini düşürdüğünü göstermektedir. Bu çalışmada, ana hat trenlerinin sürücüsüz çalıştırılmasının avantaj ve dezavantajları ayrıntılı olarak verilmekte olup mevcut sürücüsüz metro trenlerinin daha derinlemesine izlenip analiz edilerek deneyim kazanılması konusunda önerilerde bulunulmaktadır.
