　　Step 1: Listen to all announcements
　　on the PA and follow all directions given by the train driver, even if they contradict the instructions in this article - they know best。
　　听从列车司机指挥，即使指挥与本文相悖——他们更了解当时情况。
　　Step 2: Alert the driver and/or train control by using any emergency alarms or intercoms that you can see。
　　使用紧急报警设施或对讲机，设法通知列车人员。
　　Step 3: Move to the next car back (or away from danger) if possible. If you are at the end of a bilevel train, exit through the end of the train from the top level。
　　远离事发车厢。
　　Step 4: If it is not possible to move farther away from danger, exit downwards and operate emergency exits on this level。
　　如果无法离开事发地，使用紧急出口。
　　Step 5: Look for an emergency exit or emergency door release switch。
　　寻找紧急出口或紧急开门按钮。
　　Step 6: If you cannot open the doors, look for an emergency exit window. Train windows are typically made with impact resistant glass: Don't count on being able to break the window without a fire axe or sledge hammer。
　　如果无法打开紧急车门，则寻找太平门窗户。
　　Step 7: Escape the train immediately and stay well clear. Be aware that if the train you are on is also carrying dangerous or combustible materials, you will need to avoid these as you make your escape。
　　迅速离开火车。如果火车装有危险物或易燃物，谨记逃离时避开这些物品。
　　Step 8: Stay well clear of train tracks and do not walk on them to find the nearest station, as trains can approach without warning。
　　远离轨道，不要在铁轨上行走寻找最近火车站——火车会毫无预兆的驶过。
　　Step 9: Once you are out of danger, call the emergency services。
　　一旦逃离危险立刻报警。
　　Step 10: Should you have to evacuate the train in a tunnel, be sure to take extra care to avoid injury。
　　如果事故发生在隧道里，要格外小心以免受伤。
