Point of clarification: The aether can be at rest relative to the train and at rest relative to the embankment if the train and the embankment occupy different places in three dimensional space. If the train and embankment frames occupy different places in three dimensional space and the aether is at rest relative to the train frame of reference and the aether is at rest relative to the embankment frame of reference the lightning strikes at A, A', B and B' will result in Simultaneity of Relativity: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyWTaXMElUk If there is a single lightning strike at A/A' and there is a single lightning strike at B/B' and the train frame of reference and the embankment frame of reference occupy the same three dimensional space, then the aether cannot be at rest relative to the train frame of reference and be at rest relative to the embankment frame of reference.
