Do not enter or cross tracks sign

Do not enter or cross tracks sign

On top are two signs found very commonly in the NYC subway, the first being a warning that reads "Do not enter or cross tracks", containing a pictograph which actually does not imply anything about train tracks. To the left is a temporary sign warning that rodenticide had been used nearby, so please, do not eat off the subway station platform. But on the bottom was the more unusual sign, owing to the technological improvements made to the L line around this time. The sign reads, "Warning: automatic train operation in effect. Communication based train control rules apply. Employees must contact control center for track access."
