〇番目の車両が、降りてすぐ左手(右手)に乗り換え口があって便利ですよ。
〇ばんめのしゃりょうが、おりてすぐひだりて(みぎて)にのりかえぐちがあってべんりですよ。
The XXth car is convenient because the transfer gate is immediately to your left (right) when you get off.
Gesture & etiquette
Point generally in the direction of the train or to a map if available.
Avoid asking during peak rush hour if possible, as staff will be very busy. Be prepared for a quick, concise answer.
