If the area the passengers travelled in is deemed a place of work, then
there may be implications with the NSW OH&S legislation. To the best of my
knowledge without the legislation in front of me, the employer has a duty of
care towards all people at a place of work even if they are not employees,
which could include stopping people being assualted on train carriages.
