‘Neutral Zone’, that is.
I found an article in the India Times recently quite amusing, regarding a train that got stuck in a neutral zone and had to be pushed by fellow passengers.
I’ve heard of push starting cars… but never push starting trains! And coming from India, where there are jokes aplenty about the railway system, this was all the more amusing.
(Neutral Zones act as a circuit break so as not to affect the rest of the circuit should a problem occur – and it helps the transmission of electricity over long distances also).
