I was at Sydenham today, and the last set of doors would not shut. They were just fully open and made no attempt to close.
After about 10 minutes of trying to fix the fault, the train was taken out of service.
I was surprised that the train accelerated at normal speeds out of the station with the last set of doors fully open, with no barrier or member of staff to prevent someone jumping onto the train (if they were stupid enough to do so).
That is different to what would happen in a similar situation on the London Underground?
