How about an emergency alarm/buzzer that alerts incoming trains to anything on the tracks -- people or obstructions.
Low tech, but would offer a way to help people without risking your own life.
You'd need surveillance or something to prevent people from using it as a prank though.
- kbrosnan 13y agoTrains take miles to come to a complete stop. Unless the person is standing in the tracks for minutes these would be ineffective.
