Hygiene on the train

      Hygiene on the Train

      The train is a convenient and accessible mode of transport, especially popular during the summer vacation period. However, it is important to consider that train stations and trains are places of mass gatherings, which increases the risk of infection.

      To ensure a comfortable and safe journey, it is necessary to follow personal hygiene rules. This is especially important for children, elderly people, and those with weakened immune systems.

      What to remember before boarding the train:

      - Wash your hands with soap after touching public surfaces at the station (handrails, door handles, elevator buttons, turnstiles, terminals). If there is no access to water, use hand sanitizer or alcohol wipes.

      - Do not place personal items (children's toys, pillows, blankets, food) on the floor or seats in waiting areas; do not lean back against the seat.

      - Do not lean against glass partitions and walls, especially if you are wearing summer clothing with exposed skin.

      - If possible, avoid eating in common areas of the station, especially if you haven't washed your hands.

      - Use the restroom carefully, wash your hands thoroughly after using it, and open the door with your shoulder or use a napkin when exiting.

      What rules to follow during the journey:

      1. Regularly wash your hands with soap (before eating, after using the restroom, after contact with handrails, doors); for additional disinfection, use hand sanitizer.

      2. When you sit in your seat, tidy up: wipe the shelf, folding table, armrests, and call buttons with wet wipes or disinfectant.

      3. Unpack bedding with clean hands. If possible, it is better to use your own sheet, pillowcase, and towel.

      4. If the journey is long, take comfortable clothing made of natural fabrics and change into it after the train departs. Do not walk barefoot in the carriage – only in changeable shoes (for example, light flip-flops).

      5. When using the restroom, minimize contact with surfaces. After using the toilet, be sure to wash your hands and wipe the door handle before exiting.

      6. Eat only packaged or pre-prepared food, store it in containers. Do not place food directly on the table – use a napkin or a plate. Ensure that children do not eat on the upper shelf or on a dirty surface.

      7. Do not leave trash; dispose of it immediately in the special containers provided in the carriage.

      To maintain hygiene on the train, it is recommended to have the following items with you:

      - Hand sanitizer;

      - Liquid soap in a convenient small package;

      - Wet wipes (hygienic and antibacterial);

      - Dry wipes and paper towels;

      - Toilet paper;

      - Individual towel;

      - Disposable mask (in case of a cold);

      - Toothbrush and toothpaste;

      - Comb, lip balm, hand cream, and other necessary items;

      - Plastic bags for trash.

      By following these simple yet effective precautions, you can enjoy a comfortable and pleasant journey. More useful information on sanitary safety and the prevention of dangerous diseases can be found on the website sanshit.ru.
