Dear all,

the following topic about "mandatory braking" is still open. However, it
seems like the interest in having a solution available in railML is
quite small. So: in case you urgently need a solution for modelling
mandatory braking points in railML infrastructure, please comment here.
Otherwise, the issue will be closed.

Best regards
Christian
