At that point you pretty much got a whole day to go and rescue the guy, assuming trolley is traveling around 40-50mph

Bold of you to assume there's a highway connection between you and the distant victim.

For the sake of the argument, the train takes the same tracks as the trolley and the trolley service otherwise has the same budget as the US DOD.
