How to request a train to stop, from the platform?[edit]

Given that railway request stops are incredibly rare these days - at least, without some kind of electronic communication system - it would be useful if someone could add a paragraph explaining exactly how one (safely) requests a steam train to stop, from the platform.

Does one really just hold out one's hand, as if hailing a bus?

Surely the foilage of this woodland stop makes it difficult for the train driver to see potential hailing passengers from the platform?

It's just like hailing a bus, really. Most official instructions say you should "make a clear hand signal to the driver". The driver of the train will have slowed down on approach to the station and will be looking closely for any potential passengers. -=# Amos E Wolfe talk #=- 21:28, 27 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
