| In the event of an emergency, it may become necessary to
evacuate the train you are riding on. Remember to listen to the instructions
given by train crews or other emergency responders who will tell you what
to do. There are four ways you may be evacuated from a train to a safe area.

|
Train to Benchwall The train crew and other emergency personnel will assist
you to the area of the tracks adjacent to the train known as the Benchwall
and lead you to an Emergency Exit or station platform (see figure
1).

that has pulled up ahead or behind (see figure 2). |

you from the train you were riding to another train that has pulled
up along side. A device will be placed to enable you to move directly
into the other train (see figure 3). |
