I thought you had to live within 30mins of your home depot? anyway getting back on track! (no pun intended). I have also driven DOO trains and I always left ontime unless I was late!. I heard a complaint once that a train left 3 seconds early! what planet are these people from?

if a train is to leave ontime the doors must shut before hand and with EU regs saying there has to be a bleeper for 5-7 seconds before the doors actually shut (FOR BLIND PEOPLE) which in itself take 3-5 seconds (assuming they want to shut on your last trip of the day!) logic states they will close early. people have to realise trains run to a timetable and not their personal needs.
