Ian, how can someone be overzealous about saving your life? Not sure about
NSW but QR rules state track MUST be clear 10 minutes before the EXPECTED
arrival time of the train. Now this may be a pain in the arse to you but
it's your life they're saving and a line has to be drawn somewhere. If
stopping for 10 minutes is such a problem to your work method, then that is
purely bad time management planning.
