Abstract
Line capacity in metro and high-frequency suburban railways is as much determined by station stop times as by factors such as line speed or train acceleration. This paper applies the method developed by London Underground to estimate the time that trains spend at stations, as a function of the physical characteristics of the situation (e.g. train door width) and the numbers of passengers involved. Analysis was carried out on a number of alternative designs for refurbishment of South West Trains' Class 455 inner-suburban rolling stock. Whilst there is indeed an interaction between boarding and alighting passengers, this paper demonstrates that the LUL relationship breaks down at the highest passenger loads. Moreover, results indicate that passenger flow is not equal between different parts of the same group of boarders or alighters.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
