North American travelling mode?

edit

What does "North American travelling mode" mean? There's no explanation or link, and I haven't got a clue. Loganberry (Talk) 30 June 2005 16:05 (UTC)

  • I'm guessing it means that the incoming trains are to your left, and outgoing trains are to your right (\/ /\), as is the typical setup in North America, which runs contrary to the conventional setup in Hong Kong (incoming: right; outgoing: left; /\ \/). Having been to the station, I can say for sure it uses the (\/ /\) setup. - Hinto 04:57, 16 July 2005 (UTC)Reply

This is a Chinese word, there is no need to prescribe an incorrect English pronounciation to it

[1] It matches the Tai Wai article. Why should it be removed? 203.218.129.244 (talk) 14:07, 4 February 2021 (UTC)Reply

It should be removed for the reason I cited in my edit summary. It's also uncited. If you want to re-add it, find a citation. Citobun (talk) 14:09, 4 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
That's more like the pronunciation in English, and that matches what's aired on trains in the announcements, for instance. So should that be removed from the Tai Wai article too? 203.218.129.244 (talk) 14:13, 4 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
We aren't talking about the Tai Wai article. Citobun (talk) 14:43, 4 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
What? Did I try to talk about the Tai Wai article here? I was simply suggesting that if it's valid and relevant it would be so for both articles, and the opposite is true too. 203.218.129.244 (talk) 11:22, 16 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
