Hi,

=20

I just wanted to point out, being a train driver, that if this thing has th=
e purpose (among others) to avoid that people stand on the railways while a=
 train is coming it better be 99,999% safe.=20

You have to consider that when people will realize/understand that "bright =
light" equals "coming train" they will also consider that "no lights" equal=
s "no train", hence a failure on the system could be fatal.

In a straight tunnel it could also be easier to detect people/animals and T=
HEN brighten the lights or signal the danger to the driver.

Just a few thoughts.
