What do you mean with proper signaling at station?
A train in manual mode at a station gets loaded/unloaded infinitely.
The Fat Controller is a nice mod for remote controlling trains:

It would be nice if your feature could be implemented there - like a panic button.
Why did you choose to stop if the trains are at station or signal and not immediately?

You should have at least one train length of space after the exit of the station before the first rail signal. Stopping the train immediately can result in a cargo wagon being aligned with a fuel loader, which can break other parts of your factory.

Ah I understand. Good idea.
