That might possibly create problems due to the passing loop being too short at places like Rathdrum and Enniscorthy. Also, it would have to be the rearmost carriage locked out because otherwise the driver may have to overshoot the signal. Station staff could unlock the doors wherever they are going to become available; there's always a guy with a green flag on the platform.
