Hello,

I saw on a moving 96ts the other day that one of the rail cars had a
blue light on.

The interesting thing was that the train did not extend its dwell time
beyond what would be normal.

Does the blue light indicate a door fault? I'm guessing, were that the
case, that the line controller ordered the driver to engage the
interlocking. But even if there was a door fault, would not the line
controller have ordered the driver to dump the load?

I saw this train during non-peak hours, BTW.

I think it means it's a de-icing train.

Got it. If it were a door fault, then would the red guard light be flashing?

What about in the case of a passenger alarm?

If the doors are proved closed, the exterior orange light will be off, else it will be on. Away from a platform, the train management system will be of more use.

Yes, I know that. But what I am asking is that if there is a door fault,
if the guard light will give any other indication.

Also, is there a particular indication on the guard light if somebody
pulls a passenger alarm?

Are you referring to the onboard computer?

But why is the light necessary and whom is it intended for?
