Posted by Andrew Saucci on Thu Jul 5 18:31:20 2012, in response to Stalled WMATA Green Line Train "Self-Evacuated" by Its Passengers, posted by WMATAGMOAGH on Thu Jul 5 17:24:38 2012. In stifling heat or bitter cold, the interior of an unventilated, unheated or un-air-conditioned railcar can quickly become dangerous in itself, particularly for those not in perfect health, especially the elderly. That is why rail operators MUST act expeditiously and efficiently to evacuate stranded passengers, and bungling such as the rescue train breaking down (maybe a diesel would be in order here) just doesn't cut it. Fifteen minutes doesn't seem bad unless you're one of the hostages.Maybe we should just go back to catenary so they don't have that excuse to keep passengers trapped indefinitely. |
