They all worked fine for me.
I'm not a fan of numbers three and four, but the rest are very good. Nice job, MKJ.

These are some pics of the actual "station" and the cars:
It isn't finished, but the overall design is done.

I like 1/2/5, But I think 2 is the best, just make it more stream linded and smooth. Or make in fold into the back of the car, because It gives the feal of the Batman car xD, well the old one at least. =P, none-the-less there great animations.

Enhanced Animation Version of Video 2:

Some Pics to go with it:
I realized I didn't like the plain slope of the window, so I made it a little more halo-ish.
Edit: For reference I made an animation with MC in it (no opening or closing of doors). I did mess around with the lighting animation a bit though

Oh, those look fun! The open animation looks kinda weird though, the glass just slides up ontop. Maybe make it open like its on a hinge.

Make something to slide it on, not just float on midair.
Like, a long strip, where a small part of the door slots into, make it slide along there.

Yeah, sorry, I should have posted this as a WIP. I wanted to get a feel for what people liked before I added the hinges (which would take a while).

Another Update:
I trashed the front door idea for a more practical one; side doors.

Like I said over at GBX and on Aim, sweet stuff, hope to see this in your upcoming map, and with the path constraints all worked out.

it'd be sweet if you went with the front door idea and made it open like a beetle, where it's glass is 2 symmetrical pieces that open away from each other.

I tried many different things for the front door mechanism. All of them were either too complicated, or didn't look great.

I prefer the side view one, its more streamline, robust and practical. Maybe have a little ramp jut out as the doors open up?
