What the petition asks
This petition is on behalf of my uncle Alex Scott who campaigned most of his life for blind and disabled and his last wish was for easier rail transport for blind and disabled.
To have buttons on every train in the same area.
You can read about his campaigns googling "Alex Scott MBE"

Here’s an example: in the toilets, buttons in the same position have different functions on different trains. In one train a button might open the door, but in another train the button will do something different.
This was Alex last wish, so sign if you think trains should have a law on where their bottons are for easier transport for the blind and disabled.
