When the doors fail to open automatically you are not trapped in! In an emergancy you can still open the doors manually! (read the instructions by the door just incase if it bothers you).
They can't win. Most trains were late due to the very passengers that complained about them being late. Customers holding doors open whilst their mate got the coffee was a prime example. Sliding doors get rid of this. Now people are moaning because of some teething trouble!
You a still FAR more likely to be injured or killed on the roads, do you threaten the government with corporate manslaughter? We complain about this being a nanny state and yet if a door fails we start calling for peoples heads! Is it any wonder! In the south of France I've been on moving trains with the doors open as it is too hot!
FFS an improvement in our transport industry is not a quick fix. It takes time and there will be mistakes made. Give them time and support and they WILL get there. If you keep writing to the Argus because a door has failed then you are no better than a NIMBY IMHO for you stand in the way of progress!
