The station in question is JM de Rosas, the northern terminal of the B line. Being a terminal station, a train can arrive at either side of the platform. And there are staircases at both ends of the central platform.
With a mid-line station, one can just memorize, "I turn left after I get off" or whatever. But with Rosas, I have no idea how to tell which way I go for exit 6. If I get the wrong exit, I wind up having to walk all the way around the block.
Obviously this isn't a life and death matter. It won't kill me to have to walk around another manzana, but when my back is sore, or my knees are hurting, I'd really rather make the trip from station to home as short as possible.
So, the question is, when I have just stepped off the train, and I'm on that platform, is there any way to tell which staircase leads to exit 6? I don't see any, but many times in past when I've asked such question, someone in this community of clever people has revealed an answer which I had missed, or a secret technique to make this sprawling, brawling great city a bit more navigable.
