That sounds like an excellent idea.

The cult of the dead seems to be a growing phenomenon with this extension to the necropolis being one further example. The proliferation of benches in memorium is another.

It's not that people don't feel the loss. It's just that, by extension, everything can be subsumed by it. If everyone installs a bench, or gravestone, for everyone that dies then we will rapidly run out of room... which is precisely the issue by the railway. I wonder whom is the presumed audience for this public demonstration of 'grief'?

An urban allotment would be an excellent, and more productive, and less mawkish use of the site.
