Railway stations are usually considered to be one of the main gathering centers of the city; thus, in the event of any incident, there will be significant casualties. The purpose of this study is to simulate strategies for reducing the evacuation time of the railway station in the event of fire using a safe zone approach with simulation software. To reduce the evacuation time, 18 scenarios were introduced and simulated according to (1) number of gates and exit doors, (2) width of the gates, (3) obstacles, (4) priority of the exit doors, and (5) safe zone. The results show that the best evacuation time occurs by increasing the number of exit doors from two to four and considering a safe zone simultaneously; the evacuation time is reduced by 7 min and 19 s. Using safe zones for emergency evacuation has a significant role in reducing evacuation time and improving service levels. Interestingly, the removal of gates and obstacles would increase the evacuation time of passengers. The proposed model could be used for renovating existing railway stations to decrease the consequences of accidents such as fire.

火车站通常被认为是城市的主要集散地之一。因此，一旦发生任何事件，将有大量人员伤亡。这项研究的目的是使用安全区域方法和模拟软件来模拟减少火灾时火车站疏散时间的策略。为了减少疏散时间，根据（1）大门和出口门的数量，（2）大门的宽度，（3）障碍物，（4）出口门的优先级和（5）引入和模拟了18种场景安全区。结果表明，通过将出口门的数量从两个增加到四个并同时考虑安全区域，可以实现最佳的疏散时间。疏散时间减少了7分钟和19 s。使用安全区进行紧急疏散对减少疏散时间和提高服务水平具有重要作用。有趣的是，拆除大门和障碍物会增加乘客的疏散时间。所提出的模型可以用于翻新现有的火车站，以减少诸如火灾等事故的后果。
