I wouldn't, but a train[1] is more similar to a bus than to a plane, so I don't agree with your rejection of the comparison.
The key differences are:
- Two pilots rather than one because a plane can't just whack the brakes on if the pilot goes unconscious
- Evacuation has to be completed in the event of a crash within minutes otherwise everybody dies (this is where the small plane differs as it's more like a car in terms of getting out)
Neither of those are true of a train. If the driver, as the only member of staff, goes unconscious, the train automatically stops and everyone is safe remaining on board until evacuated. (It's no fun, but they are safe). And regarding evacuation, in almost no case on the railway does this need to be rushed - almost always it is *less* safe.
They simply are not comparable.
[1] OK, not a 12 car London commuter train, but a Class 153 has a similar capacity to a large coach or double decker bus, and in London the same number of doors, too.
Slight flaw in your bus comparison seeing it can't derail and therefore doesn't need to put down emergency protection. Keep attempting, I'll keep laughing off your bus comparison. Plus, I'm not going to insult anyone's intelligence about brakes and stuff, my comparison .was more to do with the behaviour of people in the cabin of both train and plane. Imagine a DOO inter city service on a football day with no staff, they're bad enough WITH staff, imagine the carnage without any. Then imagine a Ryanair going to Prague for instance with stag and hen do's on board and pilots only. I'll leave that lovely thought with you all.
