A passenger-carrying, rail-mounted vehicle powered from an overhead electrical power line, and having a roof escape hatch for passenger emergency escape therethrough is provided. The roof hatch includes a remotely-controlled locking device having a closed state preventing opening of the roof hatch and a released state allowing opening of the roof hatch. The vehicle further has a control system configured to control the operation of the remotely-controlled locking device. The remotely-controlled locking device remains in its closed state until receipt of a release signal generated by the control system. The control system suppresses the generation of the release signal until it receives confirmation that power in the overhead power line is cut.
