Got bored. Invented the Merseyrail trolley problem.

Two tracks diverge at a central point. A little person holds a lever in one hand and waves with the other. A double decker bus with 5 people tied to the roof trundles by. There’s no trolley because it’s a Sunday. 5 people are tied to a rail replacement bus which will drop them off two miles from where they need to be. You can do nothing.
