Abstract: An apparatus and method for providing partitioned barrier members that form a barrier that restricts the space between cars of multi-car transportation vehicles. Barrier members extend from adjacent vehicle cars or mounts attached thereto and cooperate to form the barrier. The barrier members can assume a relaxed state, such as when vehicle cars are substantially aligned, and deformed or compressed states, such as when the vehicle cars travel along a sufficiently large curve. The barrier deters passengers from inadvertently and/or accidentally walking between cars of the multi-car transportation vehicle, thereby reducing the risk of injury.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for a Between Car Barrier for multi-car transportation vehicles which utilize a combination of a flexible member and a secured mount, each of which are attached at opposed ends of adjacent cars of a vehicle in substantial alignment with another where the longitudinal axis of each car is substantially aligned. A positioning member keeps the flexible member from extending beyond the edge of the car, even when the vehicle is turning or traversing a curve. This provides a barrier to deter passengers from inadvertently and/or accidentally walking between cars of the multi-car transportation vehicle, thereby reducing the risk of injury.
