My old supervisor at Millar had secured a car in a multi-car group, by placing it on inpsection at the top floor, cab lights off, and car door open. He unclutched the hall doors and closed them. Then he went up to the machine room to do something.
In the process of going up and down the stairs to the machine room, they figured he got turned around. When he came back to the top landing, he picked the doors on the wrong car, and stepped into what he thought was a darkened cab. Which turned out to be an empty shaft, and he fell to his death.
