Would that not be safer than hitting the door unlock button with 2 cars beyond the platform and not even making a PA to move down the train?

Can the black box record exactly where the train stopped? Can IE delete what's on it? Do the IRSC have access to the black box like the CAA would with an aircraft incident?
