I haven't ridden the NHSL for quite a while, but I just viewed a head-end video and noticed that the lunar-white wayside flag-stop signals are gone, along with the short third-rail sections on the platform side at stations. When was that installation removed, and was it because maintenance costs were becoming impractally high? (I assume it dated from about the 1930's.) It appeared that the operator slowed down to look for passengers on the platform before accelerating away without stopping.
But life goes on. On the Karlsruhe tram-train network in Germany there are some infill stations served by tram-trains but not DB trains, and a similar system has been in place when I have visited there.
