Even though there is a near zero chance of it ever being necessary, has anyone ever given thought to exiting a subway car in an absolute, dire emergency?
Considering that subway cars don't have emergency exits accessible to riders (like buses and LIRR/MNRR cars do), it would be significantly harder to exit.
Based on my observations, I figured how to exit these cars:
NTTs: Go out through the storm door at the end of the car, undo the chain and use the ladder to exit
75-footer SMEEs: Pop open the advertisement panel and push down on the door unlock lever
60/51-footer SMEEs: Exit via the storm door or follow the process for the 75 footers.
Are there any other ways to get out?
