Train 230, car 353. Conductor leaned against door and fell out of the train while it was in motion. Banged up and scraped pretty bad.

EMS met train at Allegheny and took conductor to hospital. Walking and conscious.

Supervision arrived to fulfill role as conductor and took train north with engineer and AC.

Glad to hear the conductor was OK. Where exactly did this happen at 16th St?

Don't know. It was dark. Wasn't paying attention. Thought at first we were just holding for the signal, but then I started streaming the SEPTA radio internet stream and heard dispatch confirming EMS for an injury.
