The Center for American Progress reports:
Obama is famously low key. That's why on the hit Comedy Central show "Key & Peele", Keegan-Michael Key plays "Luther, President Obama's anger translator". The [annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner], however, is a rare place where the President can cut loose--as long as he uses humor.
In a hilarious admission that he has been too low key to convey the moral outrage justified by humanity's myopic march toward self-destruction--and by the brazen denial of climate science by many conservatives--Obama brought out "Luther" to express that outrage. And then, in an ingenious twist, Obama became so outraged that he didn't need Luther and in fact Luther himself couldn't take the genuinely angry Obama, who says of denial, "What kind of stupid, shortsighted, irresponsible, bull-"
Here's a video of the event.

They also scream at you that they'll sue you for your last penny, if you cause the train to halt and thereby cause them to miss their important appointment.
FTFY.

Anecdote: something similar actually happened to me. In my life I have (so far) pulled the emergency brake of a train thrice; twice to save someone's life (running along on the outside with their hand stuck inside), and once to save someone's fingers (stuck between the door from the inside, so invisible from the outside, and with 10 minutes to the next station). I was screamed at for causing the train delay, and threatened to have to pay a € 250 fine (the other two times I was thanked instead). I'm glad I never had to pay, otherwise I might be reluctant to pull the brake the next time I see the same event unfolding.

After three incidents I have to conclude that you must be putting people in jeopardy to create an excuse to pull the brake.
