Odd use, and considering the vernacular, probably innapropriate(sp) or erroneous use of the term “simulated service.”
Aircraft pilots, astronauts, super tanker bridge crews, even locomotive engineer trainees, know what simulation is. From the WWII Link trainer to SP 8799 at Cerritos, simulators provided an unreal but vicariously thrilling imitation of the sensations of the real vehicles operation.
This seems better described as a practice or maybe a rehearsal. They’re using the trains, not simulaters…right?
