Now is that measured to the buffers, the front of the cab, the window, the drivers seat? Is the distance between the buffer and the driver's seat identical across all locos and DMUs? We are talking a full 1.27 yards (1.15m) here.

The point was that after the SPAD, procedure was followed. No usually good, but for all we now the red light came on within the minimum stopping distance.
