How to behave in railway transport?
First of all, the conductor will check your tickets and documents, it is important not to leave any of this with the accompanying persons, and also after checking not to lose them. It will be useful to get acquainted with the neighbors in the carriage, especially if it is a long-distance train. If any aspects bother you, you can always turn to a guide for help.
Some points must also be taken into account in a long-distance train. Since the trip is long, it is important to take care of food during this time, as well as water. Homemade food can be stored for a short time, so you need to eat it immediately, at the beginning of the trip. Basically, you need to take products that can be stored for a long time (fruits, nuts, canned food, cookies, products brewed with boiling water).

While driving
During the trip, you need to remember about personal space. And not only about your own, but also about the space of other passengers: leaning on others with all your weight and pushing is unacceptable, this can even lead to a conflict. Disrespectful towards other people will speak loudly with their acquaintances, as well as speak loudly on the phone. Personal life will not be the best topic for discussion, profanity is unconditionally banned.
Having a snack during the trip may seem convenient, but it completely contradicts the rules of etiquette. The smell will spread over the entire area, crumbs will fall, and the possibility of staining a neighbor is not excluded.

When leaving
Going out, do not rush forward, try not to interfere with the exit of others. If it is difficult for someone to leave, try to help. A gallant man can give a girl a hand, showing courtesy. Both at the entrance and at the exit, if you see a baby stroller, heavy bags - be sure to offer help, it's hard to cope with this alone.

Who should give way to?
If you see a person who is having a hard time standing, you should certainly make room for him. The unspoken rule is that, first of all, seats should be given to the elderly, pregnant women, passengers with children in their arms and the disabled. But every self-respecting man will certainly give way to a woman. The sense of tact should be more developed in boys and men, who will always help and give way.

How to behave in an emergency?
Rule number 1 in an emergency is not to panic or spread panic among others. If it is clear that a disaster cannot be avoided, you have to lie on the floor or sit on a seat, cover your head with your hands. After an accident, you need to try to leave the transport, but only after it has come to a complete stop. If it is impossible to do this through the doors, there is an alternative option - to squeeze out or break the glass.
If possible, you need to help other people get out, and then move to a safe distance and call the rescue services.
