Mellow Yellow Monday: Yellow lines



http://mellowyellowmonday.blogspot.com/

Yellow lines made of little raised disc at Mt Albert railway station. I think, I am not sure, the raised disc makes it less slipperly for any one to fall unto the tracks. I don't take the train, perhaps one of you who do can tell us.

G' Day From Australia, Those raised discs are made of non slip rubber so passengers don't slip and injury themselves or slip off the platform and under the train, it's a bit messy when that happens.

Glad you told us, I would have thought it was yellow paint. I bet your idea is right, keeps people from slipping. Now THAT would be a BAD place to fall!!

I"m sure this is some sort of a safety feature, but it is certainly appropriate for Mellow Yellow Monday.

It's good for safety!

I'm safe here,the earth quake happened far from here (West Sumatra and Mentawai island). I live in West Java.

I still use my pocket camera, Canon PowerShot A 480...

G' Day From Australia, I do remember that incident with the pram or push chair a while back. I suspect that the brake was not engaged on the pram or push chair so it rolled down the sloping platform and onto the tracks because of the vibrations given off by the train arriving at the platform. Scary stuff Eh!.

Hi, Ann!
Great post for MYM. I agree with what others said that is for safety purpose.

here they put lines on platforms so folk don't stand too near the edge
