I don't think there will be PEDs. But why would the trains need extra
kit if PEDs are fitted?


I just assumed there needs to be some kit in the train to tell the door
mechanism that its arrived and fully stopped. I can't see how you'd get the
2nd part of that accurate enough just by using some sort of passive sensor.


If the teething troubles they had with the JLE were correctly reported,
most of the PED-synching is down to the driver's skills, rather than
technology.
