Stopping an MU metro consist with dynamic braking on every axle is a lot different from stopping a freight train.
I didn't think platform doors without automation was practical, but I saw them recently in Japan (on the private Aoyama Railway, serving Nagoya). Seoul also seems to be retrofitting all lines with them, and I'm not sure all those lines are automated.
