The Test

The AEV proceeded up the hill towards the gate. It stopped for the required seven seconds at the gate and advanced forward towards the loading zone. The AEV picked up the caboose while remaining in the loading zone for five seconds. While the AEV was heading back towards the gate, it unexpected stopped short of the sensor. Human contact was made to push the AEV forward into the sensor. The AEV and caboose stopped back at the starting dock area. The run was completed in 49 seconds.
