Modern subways and transit lines, mostly in Asia but also seen in new airport terminals, isolate the tracks from the public saving lives and preventing delays caused by everything from suicide attempts to rescue missions for fallen cell phones. They are seen in cities like Seoul, the capital of South Korea (see video) but are not part of the current program of LRT construction in Toronto. Safety subways and transit systems moving travellers between airport terminals employ two sets of doors. One set on the train and another in the terminal. A computer program coordinate the train so that both sets of door meet when the it stops. People on the subway tracks delayed TTC train service for a total of 26 hours last year. As upsetting as it is, the issue of people on the tracks is common in old-fashioned subway systems like those in Toronto, New York and London.
