That's not going to do anything. Train Operator are instructed to coast to a platform or exit if you loose power.

Your better off going to the end of the customer platform in the direction the train is coming and turn your flashlight from your phone and frantically move your hand towards the train. Train Operators are instructed to stop immediately.

It's not going to stop a train but it might keep someone from being fried by the third rail.
