  There is a by now well-established isomorphism between stationary
4-dimensional spacetimes and 3-dimensional purely spatial Randers geometries -
these Randers geometries being a particular case of the more general class of
3-dimensional Finsler geometries. We point out that in stably causal
spacetimes, by using the (time-dependent) ADM decomposition, this result can be
extended to general non-stationary spacetimes - the causal structure (conformal
structure) of the full spacetime is completely encoded in a parameterized
(time-dependent) class of Randers spaces, which can then be used to define a
Fermat principle, and also to reconstruct the null cones and causal structure.
