Posted by Bill West on Sat Sep 12 21:20:46 2009, in response to Re: Fourth Rails and Safety, posted by Subterranean Railway on Sat Sep 12 17:02:17 2009. -bare top rails.... my choice is that I’d rather step over a tall top cover than over a medium bare rail. I’m thinking of where I would fall if anything went wrong.-buried substation.... most of my stations were outdoors. If someone got through the fence we didn’t try to regulate the degree of defenses inside, we’d already failed. There are just too many different ways for him to end up hurt once he breaks in for us to try and choose meaningful defenses. -shards of glass.... in the safety approach I mentioned the equivalent argument would be that if there is a need to have the glass there, then don’t debate the sharpness of glass, debate ways to keep people from falling. ie platform door systems. -car “safety”.... political programs are not something I’d take up in a scientific debate.
