Adjective edit

low-floor

  1. Of buses, trams or trains, built with a floor closer to ground level to ease access for passengers.
    • 2020 November 4, Philip Haigh, “Easy to maintain, easy to use, but how easy to implement?”, in Rail, page 33:
      To date, only Stadler has brought low-floor trains to Britain, while the major rolling stock makers - Bombardier, Alstom, Siemens and Hitachi - seem wedded to trains with high floors that force passengers in wheelchairs to ask for help to board and alight trains.

Usage notes edit

A low-floor train needs to have floors at the same height as the platforms at the stations it serves. Many trains have floor heights above the height of the platforms.
