Hi

 

Looking to that video :

 

 

 

I realize how descending can be dangerous (look at 00:30 +). The train driver is really close to the line and in case of rain / extrem humid air, I'm sure something has been design to protect him as build-in safety. 

 

JM.

Odakyu raised cabs were / are entered from inside the train.

Having grown up on a ship and spent a lot of time on boats and ships, I would not consider this small few steps up very hazardous/dangerous. Yes something you have to be thinking about before and while you do the scramble it’s not a horrid safety issue IMHO. Crew seems well versed in doing the climb.

Its probably no higher than climbing from the ground to the floor of a train.

Isn't that train very old and long retired?
