Means what it says. Someone’s been sighted walking where they should not. So it’s possible the trains will get delayed.
There will likely be delays as the trains are only allowed to go at walking pace or might be stopped completely for the safety of those ~~idiots~~ persons near the tracks.
It means there are possibly humans near the railway. You’re welcome
it could also mean that it was a jumper and the person is “near” the track as splattered on the front of the train.
There are track works or repair going on nearby which involves people being around doing said works. The train will pass slower than usual.
Dude running amok on the tracks. Has happened before. They’ll catch him soon. Worst case scenario, someone has gotten hurt.
I feel that all of the people who jump on the tracks were really mad at humanity and wanted to fuck others one last time before going
Each time I saw that message it was because of a suicide.. the time that the “parquet” has to move to the scene and analyse the situation, that’s why they need to block the trains.
It could also happen because idiots are trying to steal copper cables
People.. a rope is so much cheaper than what your family will have to pay ..
A propos
I went to Antwerp last week by train.
Mechelen station is in process to become something totally new, a lot of work
Hopefully it goes faster than Ghent… Wink
When you are at the modern perron you see the difference lol
Also Dendermonde needs a new station, the ‘onkruid’ is unbelievable
People running on the tracks, it happens a lot. For some reason they also enjoy doing it on Eurostar tracks? (Like that train is fast and quite scary)
Persons near the track
I take the train from brussels to antwerp daily and more often than not the trainmoves at a snails pace when near Mechelen station. Im just at Mechelen and its a snails pace again.
That you should make sure to wave when you pass them /s
This happens constantly nowadays. People really don’t realise how dangerous it is plus how expensive €3000).
It causes delays which makes travellers frustrated and rightfully so.
As a trainconductor (treinbestuurder) it gives me a heartattack each time.
*Please Please Please Please STOP!*
This means people are walking next to the track. Because of that the train cant run at full speed
A Belguim normal train day!
I also read that people attempting to commit suicide tend to hang around the tracks for a while before proceeding, thus when a train driver spots someone and reports it police/others have to be cautious when approaching the person.
Best case scenario: There’s a person on the tracks.
Worst case scenario: There’s person on the tracks.
(I really hope it’s not a suicide or just a collision that’s traumatizing for the driver.)
That their is a person on the tracks, first one to beat them and not slip on their drool gets their ticket reimbursed.
Also, the sighting of a person on the tracks doesn’t imply a perfect location. Eg if somebody on a train sees someone, often they can only say between station X and Y.
So if they start looking and they find the “lost” people, they can immediately cancel the alert. But often it becomes a waiting game until the responsible feels sufficiently safe that they are gone.
That’s because Mechelen is a hotspot for people who like to walk on rails.
You do not want to know how many delays I’ve had because people are being suicidal or idiots around Mechelen.
