A train protection system automatically applies the brakes of a train if the speed limit for a segment of track is exceeded, or if the train enters a track segment that is currently signaled with a red light (i. e., the segment should not be entered). Giving reasons for your answer, explain which reliability metric you would use to specify the required reliability for such a system.
