How long would it take for the train to register at a station? What happened to traffic control via semaphores?
This situation is an absolutely perverse application of policy.

I have no idea, but don't you think that the driver would have rather stopped at that station, instead of traveling an additional 50km or whatever?
The situation is rather an indicator of how bad public transportation has become due to lack of investments, maintenance, expansion, etc. For years they didn't care a bit about this.
Why should a driver risk his life and/or job to save the day, when the issue is bigger than him/her?
