Train question.

@Pepijn the ladder is under the seat.
@Schleifleistenbruch I've seen it there in other trains. In a metal box or something. Not here though, just a normal seat.

@Schleifleistenbruch ok, solved. The staff also said "under the seat", then looked and said "huh. It should be there!"
So they'll report it as an issue.

@Schleifleistenbruch @Pepijn in the event of a water landing, the ladder can be used as a flotation device

Danish DSB has a much more brutal approach. You destroy the window and then step on the weakest of passengers to get out without tearing your designer jeans.
It's cultural.

Train question. ICE trains often have stickers referring to an emergency ladder / escape ladder (exact text depends on the sticker..).
I've been wondering for some time where they are. Will a ladder magically pop out of the wall? Do they even exist? How will panicking passengers know?
Edit: solved, see comments.
@Pepijn A few years ago, I was a passenger on an ICE train that had to be evacuated due to a damaged overhead wire. It came to a hault far away from the next station. Another ICE train was stopped on the adjacent track at the same level, so we were able to waddle from door to door via a slightly wobbly evacuation walkway. It looked similar to this model:
It doubles as an evacuation ladder. And as far as I remember, it was stored on board.

@katzentratschen Thanks for the link / images! Many years ago I've used one of these as well but forgot what it looked like.

@Pepijn @bovine3dom As a Swede, this checks out as normal Danish culture.
