You want to decline a possibility for a mandatory stop post because you
think it's "too German" but you want to keep the place of
"Betriebsbremsung"?

I am very much wondering. It's a joke, isn't it?

A mandatory stop post is by far not German. As I already explained in this
thread earlier, they appear for instance also in many other countries.
RETB stop posts in UK, for instance.

On the contrary, I do not know any other country which has something like
"Betriebsbremsung". Despite being from Germany, I do not even really know
what to do at these places as a driver. The background is very old and
out-dated as so many other rules in Germany... But we have it in RailML!
Very good!

I am wondering. And I am learning. Thank you for that lesson.

Didn't we allow speed profiles depending on the greater "route" (or path)
of a train despite this is not very general and physical and happens in
Switzerland only? I can remember a discussion at a RailML conference where
the Swiss members said "ok but what should we do"? So why not using
"anyAttributes" for that? I know more countries with mandatory stops by
infrastructure than with path-dependent speeds.

Well, we have to be careful not to get much of the other's countries
specialties... I will keep an eye on it!

Dirk.
