Default Northern line trip failures = lots of SPADs

You can always tell who the ignorant dicks are, on discussions about
railway operations, because they call signals showing a danger aspect
"red lights", as if they are traffic lights. Do they think trains weigh
1 to 40 tons and have rubber tyres rolling on asphalt?

Although heavier than 40 tonnes some trains do run on rubber tyres on
concrete in at least parts of France and Canada.
