- Train derailment
- Commuters struck by the train
- Falling from the platform
- Faulty turnstiles
- Malfunctioning train and bus doors
- Slip and fall injuries while departing, boarding, or elsewhere in the station
- Assault due to negligent security
- Falling into gaps between the train and the platform
- Fires and Explosions
