<p>[quote user="tree68"]</p> <p> <blockquote> <div><img src="/TRCCS/Themes/trc/images/icon-quote.gif" /> <strong>Bucyrus:</strong></div> <div></div> <p><span style="font-family:verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size:small;">If they need to cross in order to board, and if they are prevented from crossing; then does it not follow that they are prevented from boarding?</span></span> <div style="clear:both;"></div> </p> </blockquote> </p> <p><span style="font-family:comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#003300;">They can cross as many times as they want if there are no trains in the circuit. As would be the case <i>before</i> the train arrives. </span></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family:comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#003300;">I have trouble believing that there is so much traffic through the station that there are no times when the crossing isn't blocked.</span></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family:comic sans ms,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="color:#003300;">As has been said - get there a few minutes early and you won't have a problem.</span></span></span></p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">It has nothing to do with there being so much traffic through the station that the crossings are blocked. It has nothing to do with blocked crossings. The only point is that the train they want to board is on the circuit and producing a warning alarm that has no purpose because the train is standing still for people to board.</span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">And they cannot board because they are prevented from crossing against the activated signals that have no purpose. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">Why should they have to arrive early just because the railroad cannot figure out how to avoid sending a false warning after the train arrives? </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;">After learning about this nonsense, it is no wonder to me that this law would be proposed. </span></span></p> <p><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"><span style="font-size: small;"></span></span></p>
