Recommendation, verbatim from the inquiry
●Inquiry recommendation
Signage primarily in the form of pictograms similar to those used on aircraft, and depicting the correct operation of emergency door mechanisms, should be developed. The signage should conform to current human factors standards on signage and be displayed prominently adjacent to each door and beside the door release mechanisms, as well as within the carriage. The mechanisms should be provided with artificial illumination to highlight their location at all times, with a back-up power supply in case of an emergency (para 14.34).
