And yet somehow elevators get by without it. Or, now that I think about it, do elevators have a closing chime? Even if so, however, it’s not as loud and obtrusive as the LRT chime. The LRT chime is totally fine for departure, it’s just the repeating of it over and over while the LRT is parked which I find to be excessive.

Could that possibly be resolved by using the button to open if necessary but control the close from the cab? (Kinda a hybrid of what they do now?)
