<br />Greetings All <br /> <br />I have run into a situation that has me perplexed. <br /> <br />While at a station stop, after discharging passengers, the all clear to proceed was given, then a suitcase appears out of a door that was checked to be clear.. <br /> <br />I bolt through the car ( I have not been issued a radio yet) only to find several people trying to detrain after the door has closed with one family member outside pounding on the car yelling to open the door... Now we start to move. <br /> <br />So I dump the air... we stop... and I open the door and let the others out. <br /> <br />Now the other crew members come and ask why I did what I did, after explaining what happened they say OK, no one was hurt and no harm was done go about your duties. <br /> <br />Now, here comes an off duty engineer up to me and states in a very loud voice that I better not dump the air whenever he is on duty EVER!!! (this was in front of the remaining passengers) then he went back to his seat. <br /> <br />Was I wrong??? <br /> <br />Comments please. <br /> <br /> <br />
