The 6.15 Longford-Pearse was stopped (as usual) on the bridge across the North Strand Road this morning when the doors started beeping. One of the doors on the carriage I was on was then opened before the doors closing beeps went off and it shut again.

I notice that the darts 8600? doors can open before the train exactly stops if you press the button.

Only talking a second or so

Thats completely ok with EU rules, once the train is below 5kph you will hear a click above the door as the secondary lock switches. In a mass transit situation it does save seconds.
