What to do when the doors don't open |

Posted by Andrew Saucci on Sat Mar 10 21:59:12 2018 Last night I was on the LIRR on my way back to Carle Place on a 12-car local train. When it got to Mineola, whoever was operating the doors didn't bother to switch things back so that the front two cars would open, and at least a couple of dozen people were trapped until we got to Carle Place. You can bet they were mighty upset when they finally escaped quite a distance from where their cars were parked. I sometimes park in Mineola, and I'd have been fuming (though I usually would be more toward the middle of the train and the parking garage if I were exiting at Mineola).Someone hit the ceiling button, and another person banged on the engineer's window in the front car, but by that point it was too late. Short of pulling the emergency handle, or never riding the front two cars, what else can be done in a situation like that before it's too late? |
