Class 378 in service

I have, in the past, turned up just in the nick of time for an Oveground train, and arrived on the platform just after the guard shut the doors. I was pleasantly surprised to be allowed to get on through the guard's compartment, and then into the main saloon[1]. Admittedly, it wasn't at rush hour, when I can see this being a little less likely to happen. Common practice on Merseyrail at one point, though I don't know if it is now. When I was getting the train to/from school, if someone came running at the last minute at Ormskirk the guard would often give a single bell to stop the train even if it had started and allow such boarding to take place.
