Interesting ... What happens at the next station when the doors open? Most likely some kind of explosion of people back onto the platform. Plus what if you are in the middle of the carriage and you want to get off at that next station? I think you have buckleys of doing it. Makes Brisbane peak hour on the Ipswich Line look quite comfortable lol.
