Subway trains operate with two employees onboard. This one is the guard. Their duties are to ensuring riders enter and exit the train safely, the guard provides a crucial set of eyes scanning the platform, watching for people being harassed, for lost children, for people with mobility issues. In the case of medical emergencies on the platform or inside a moving train they are first responders.

...an important job with many tasks.
ReplyDeleteIt makes sense they'd be on board.
ReplyDeleteLots of responsibilities!

ReplyDeleteSubway trains are such a wonderful way to get around a city as they are inexpensive, fast, safe, and convenient, but they are not good during a pandemic. Hope we can reach herd immunity soon to get back to safe public transportation. Every adult needs a vaccination.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to have an extra set of eyes on the lookout for any problems.
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting to know. Nice capture.
ReplyDeleteinteresting. I don't know if Brussels metro has the same type of employee.
