Some suggestions for railway safety:
- Put threads of wire inside track while building along with insulated areas in track to hold the wire safely
- Sensors at each joining fish plate attached to wire and WIFI / low energy Bluetooth or other devices
- Extra ballast and heavy concrete for IED protection
- Weld all fish plates, clamps and other things with shock absorbing joints for heat and train movement
- At each track joint of fish plate put WIFI sensor which sends encrypted signal and tells if conductivity is right from wire in track to sense damage / sabotage
- Red Blue shift based radio sets sensing distance with unique codes for each train which tell if trains on same track are coming towards each other mapped to WIFI sensors on track to avoid collision like TCAS of flights
Too many accidents – this could be a good start
