Informations supplémentaires:
This image shows a yellow railway safety sign mounted on a station platform in the United Kingdom, clearly instructing passengers to “Keep back from the platform edge”. The accompanying message warns that passing trains can cause air turbulence, highlighting a common but often underestimated risk in busy railway environments. Such signage forms part of the UK rail network’s wider approach to passenger safety, particularly on platforms used by high-speed or non-stopping trains. The sign’s bold black text on a yellow background follows established safety-design conventions intended to ensure high visibility and immediate comprehension. Overhead line equipment and electrical infrastructure are visible in the background, reinforcing the operational context of a modern electrified railway. Together, these elements underline the importance of clear safety communication in public transport settings where large numbers of people move through confined spaces. Photographed under natural light, the image is well suited to editorial use covering rail safety, public transport infrastructure, passenger behaviour, risk awareness, and the everyday experience of travelling by train in the UK.
