Was it raining at that time..
If it is, driving in CM mode takes extra precaution when
driving... The drivers have to brake even faster, before entering
the station.. In the case of train overshooting, if it overshoots a
signal or anything, the train will then have to proceed to the next
station.. It depends on situations.. Signals are set by the
controller at City Hall..
That's what I have learnt from many staffs.. But i'm not too
sure of the explaination they gave..
