| Oct 24, 2017 at 7:58 | comment | added | Jan | @Draken from my dated experiences what you have said was correct then, too. (And it was my mum who was too lazy to join me and my dad exploring the train ;D) | |
| Oct 24, 2017 at 7:49 | comment | added | Draken | @Jan You can still, though they do recommend someone stay near the vehicle due to theft, protectetion, etc. I shouldn't have used always, but often instead. Most people, from my several experiences, don't leave their cars as the trip is rather short | |
| Oct 24, 2017 at 7:46 | comment | added | Jan | @Draken Well, you can also walk along the entire train, to the back, to the front, as you wish. Or at least you could some 15 years ago when I was young. | |
| Oct 24, 2017 at 7:39 | comment | added | Draken | @owjburnham It's all covered in the first article linked by the answer | |
| Oct 24, 2017 at 6:38 | comment | added | owjburnham | @JPhi1618 What's your reference for a halon dump not being deadly? I assumed that in the case of a fire, they gave people time to leave the carriage before activating the fire supression system. | |

| Oct 23, 2017 at 20:52 | comment | added | Draken | You can either stay inside your vehicle or stand along side it, but are always near it | |
| Oct 23, 2017 at 19:55 | comment | added | JPhi1618 | Ahh, ok. I was one of the many that was under the impression that a Halon system was deadly to people. Turns out it can be safe. | |

| Oct 23, 2017 at 18:11 | comment | added | JPhi1618 | Just a clarification - people are not in the cars/coaches while traveling, correct? | |
