Dear consuelo: I used to commute by train, and enjoyed getting off while train was still moving quite rapidly the way I had seen the trainmen doing it. You couldn't have done in on the bus, which would not have a pair of handles on each side of the steps as trains used to. By hanging onto the bars, one in each hand, facing the interior of the train, on the right hand side of the train you let go of the right hand (nearest the engine), land on your right foot in such a way that the rotation of your body takes up enough of your forward momentum that you only trot a couple steps. Great fun, but the trainmen used to get mad at me.
