I can’t help but reflect on how many tens of thousands of people opened and closed doors, boarding and alighting from packed trains at hundreds of busy stations thousands of times every morning as people pushed and jostled their way to and from work each day.
I wonder why we can’t be trusted any more?
Many millions of people had been managing without central door locking for 150 years since railways began.
Some people certainly did not manage without central door locking (CDL) back in those good old days; Passengers opening doors, inadvertently or otherwise, on moving trains and falling to their death was a regular occurrence. Which was why BR started fitting CDL in the first place.
