Pulling the cord by passengers to activate the emergency brakes would do nothing until the train got to the next station.It's a "safety feature" built into the R211's so a train wouldn't go BIE in between stations. Passengers have been known to pull a cord in between stations for a sick passenger, which of course delays things. The conductor can pull the cord anytime, including when a train is leaving a station and emergency brakes will activate. |
