Are these sentences natural? September 12
Hi,
Are the following sentences natural to a native ear?
1. Can you please wake me up when it is Kinglake station ( I asked a co-passanger to wake me up when Kinglake station arrives)
2. Please make a way, someone wants off here / want to get off here.
3. I don’t know which side the next station comes on. ( which side of the subway train)
Thanks,
MG.

1. Can you please wake me up when it is when we arrive at/when we get to Kinglake station ( I asked a co-passanger to wake me up when Kinglake station arrives) Also, the station doesn't arrive. The train arrives.
2. Please make a way step aside, someone wants off here / wants to get off here.
3. I don’t know which door opens/which side of the train the door opens at the next station comes on. ( which side of the subway train)
Thanks,
MG.

I agree with billmcd's answer, but think that you may hear people say this one, even if is not logically sound:

Bill's suggestion for this is better.
