Also, platform doors would act as a continuous windblock for elevated or expressway stations, so people wouldn't cluster near heatlamps or shelters (maybe CTA could even remove them) and they would spread out along the platform better.
Would platform doors require control automation, or would CTA Operators be able to berth trains within a few inches to line up with the platform doors?
