I noticed while travelling on a class 80x (didn't get the number) that, when the train reaches a certain speed, a small metal block pushes the sliding pocket doors slightly outwards, with a rather distinctive "clunk." Then, when the train stops, this block appears to be pulled back in, and the door moves inwards.
This video shows departing from a red signal, accelerating and then immediately arriving in a station. I have held the camera such that the doors can be seen:
Any idea why it does this? Is it something to do with permitting emergency egress or something?
