I was in D.C. last week and noticed that most of the Metrorail trains appear to be driver-controlled now - is this the case? Why was this done?
For what it's worth, I rode on a few trains which were very jerky when coming to a stop - I don't know if this was related to the operator's skill, the train's brakes or some other factor. The worst was an eight-car train on the Orange Line - the stops were so rough that I was beginning to feel nauseous by the end of the ride.
