[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by Junctionfan</i> <br /><br />I'm starting to wonder if for safety reasons, why a cab shouldn't be equiped with gas masks as a cab is equiped with a fire extiguisher in case of a fire; the crew should be able to use a gas mask due to the chemicals that they carry and the possibility of something going wrong. <br /> <br />Because the trains carry so much deadly chemicals particularly when some interact with others, I would think that gas masks would be a good idea as to allow a better chance to survive derailments of that nature. <br /> <br />Would those ones you find at an army surplus store do? <br />[/quote]Only a slight pressurizing of the cab would do much the same thing with proper filters, unless you are mentioning the need for BT's and the like for those particularly bad times.
