Cattle are quite happy to sit for hours. People are not. If a railway company
does not want people wandering around on its tracks then it needs to sort out
its evacuation procedures for when there is a system breakdown. Just leaving
people sitting on a train for hours with no information is not an option as
the passengers will simply leave and its no good the train companies whining
about it because it's their fault.
