It's a fairly inane question, I know, but I was reminded of it when I came back to the UK after two weeks in the USA. Why is it that British railway stations use the phrase "Way Out" instead of "Exit" on station signage? Surely "exit" is a more useful and comprehendible word for non-English speakers?
