"They need to keep trains on schedule, using a buggy system, with a manager looking over their shoulder."
Also lots of potentially angry passengers who want to get to their destination in time. Will miss important appointments, or even the last train connection for the day and be stranded if the train drivers decide to wait a little bit longer to be on the save side.
You also miss appointments and are late if you are dead due to a train crash.
Yes indeed. But stressed passengers tend to not think about that, so the pressure they put on the traindriver is real.
(have you ever been in a train on hold, unclear information about delay and seen the looks and talks of passengers towards the train driver walking outside who announced before he also does not know when the ride can go on? Like he is personally responsible for the delay and incompetent or straight evil)
