minus-square@faiora@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish6•1 year agoA few weeks back I was out with my kids and heard about someone jumping in front of the train that day. All I could think was: what if a kid was sitting up front enjoying the ride and looking at the tracks? How would I deal with that if it were my kid? Sounds like a justified cost to me.
minus-square@zephyreks@lemmy.caOPlinkfedilinkEnglish4•1 year agoI’ve definitely seen trains get stopped for such reasons… I really feel for the people who have to clean it up.
minus-square@corsicanguppy@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish2•1 year agoSeems harder to pull someone off the tracks with these in place. I also hear people with no easy options will still find a way to accomplish their last goals.
minus-square@zephyreks@lemmy.caOPlinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoHow are they going to end up on the tracks? Doors open after train stops and closes before train starts.
minus-square@corsicanguppy@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglish1•1 year agoI’m not saying it’ll be easy. Wasn’t it stadium where a guy hopped a barrier and fell onto the tracks from above? And each minute inside that aquarium will be so comfy in the summer.
