PTC = Positive Train Control

Trains article in the October 2011 Trains Magazine:

Confused About PTC Yet ?
"The railroad industry has been talking about positive train control for years. But now that it's becoming a reality, what exactly is it, and how will it work?" article by Steve Ditmeyer
(Pages 24 - 31 , and companion article "Ahead of the rest - Positive train control in the Northeast Corridor came before the rest of the industry" by Al DiCenso pages 32 - 35)

Those of you that have read the article(s) , what do you think and how will it affect Trainz (as far as routes that "try" to be 100% prototypical) ?
