British Snailways

Here's a question for all you fans of British Snailways.

Why when a train arrives at Victoria does the driver keep the doors closed for 15 seconds for health and safety reasons (even though the train has stopped), yet when a train arrives at Brighton does the driver open the doors immediately?

Anyone care to enlighten me about that? Cos I'm farked if I can understand it.

  1. At a guess something to do with crowding on the concourse? Completely stupid of course but what else would you expect?

    Rumour was: the door opening is normally controlled by GPS receiver that knows when train is in a station, but some stations don't have GPS reception so the doors have to be manually overridden?

  3. Don't know, but perhaps something like the reason that trains entering Boston Massachusetts in the US stop at the unused Park Street Station for a moment before proceeding to South Station. The land is (well, was - this may have changed at some time in the last four years) on a 99-year lease and one of the lease's terms was that all [passenger] trains must stop there.
