For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

I'm confused as to why this is confusing? Not all trains (such as limited express, express, etc.) stop at all stations.

what, your trains don't normally do ramps? (I guess I'm not awake yet. Thanks!)

Maybe it just bounces against the stops and goes in the other direction.

But the fundamental theorem of calculus says that there must be at least one point in time where the train stops.

Yes; but also, Zeno's Paradox says the train will never arrive!

End of the line. Look at the track.

looks more like the warning is for the track to our left which is not visible.

Of course it is, but then it wouldn't be a funny joke.
