    Hi Zane,

    The 1,2,3,4,5,6 markers tell the driver how many carriages are out of a station.

    So if a driver overruns, he knows which carriages he has to detrain through, equally if the emergency cord is pulled, he can detrain passengers through the relavent area of the train quicker.

    If the emergency cord is pulled and the driver is past board 6, he knows his train is out of the station, and as such wont stop until the next one.

    Hope this helps!
