what's all the bolliox about no connecting door, like Siemens have just
invented this.

Other countries have had this for ages

Yes, but they've never been available on our small diameter Tube trains.

I don't see why "our" is significant.

If you are trying to say it isn't available on small diameter Tube trains,
then you are wrong

Copenhagen has them and that is most definitely not a large profile tunnel

So what's new here, other than it being new to the UK?

You need articulated trains to make it possible with narrow body shells.

But that's not new either.

All we have here is current technology being brought to the UK 10 years
(plus) after other countries have got it

what's to shout about (from a technology pov)?
