Idk they've made it such that when you press the button to open the door the door will not open unless you press the button again when the train is stopped. At least on the N*Rs. Probably a safety feature or something but I don't like it so it's woke.

On metro trains (melb) you can hold down the button and the door will open as soon as the train stops. Gets the door open optimally fast whenever I am doing a public transport speedrun

When I got to Melbourne, you opened the door manually like a barbarian. They eventually upgraded the door motors to behave like this.

On Perth trains, you push the button to indicate that you want the door to open. Works either from inside or outside the train and the door opens when the train comes to a stop.

The manual doors were good for keeping the elderly riff-raff off the trains. Good workout as well.
