Interesting cabview

Hi
Quick question...do any of the modern MUs have CCTV? fitted.?
The reason I asked is that I've just downloaded a cabview...where the author has cleverly altered the left view....so that it appears your looking at a CCTV screen on the dash....with a view of the platforms.
Neat idea....I think it could be incorporated into a UK view....if there is a suitable train.
Cheers

They only have CCTV of the platform in the UK on modern London Underground sub surface stock as far as I know...

Nottingham Trams use CCTV, not sure about Midland Metro.

I think the Southern 377's are being retrofitted with external CCTV cameras.

Recent London Underground stocks (1992, 1995/96) have in cab CCTV - its replaced monitors and cameras on the platforms

Hi Jon
I live in Manchester and use the Metrolink quite regularly I am not aware that they have CCTV in the drivers cab.
Kind regards Stephen

The Metrolink trams don't have CCTV on them, but they have a little mirror that folds out from the cab, so the driver can see the passengers getting on the platform, and when to close the doors!

They sure do have cctv. And thanks, John for pointing this idea out - I might use the left and right views in a same way on tne NET trams.
