Dear Dirk

You asked me for the source for my statement:

I was told so some years ago by specialists working for CUS: they need to
calculate the exact distance from a signal to the stop to predict at which
time the train will open its doors so they can start the announcements at
the platform at the right moment.

To make sure I now asked two engine drivers from SBB how they would stop -
and they also confirmed to interpolate the stop position between the stop
signals (with length indications) according to the real length of their
train.

Best regards
Thomas
