And it's not something people are used to, as they're not looking for signage nor buttons when then come up to a sliding door. I went to the CNE this year, and here I was teaching people how to get onto the TTC's LRT, as no one knew, and they have had their trains for a while. 100% of the sliding doors I've encountered have been automatic except these LRT's.
Friends who live in or have been to Europe tell me the many trams, especially newer ones, do not have automatic doors and you need to press a button to open them. That wa smy experience as well in Dublin a few weeks ago on their Luas.
