London's Jubilee line extension had platform doors since it was opened in December 1999, but the upgrade to automatic train operation wasn't completed until 2011.
So for a long time, drivers had to manually stop the train at alignment points. This did cause occasional delays and problems, but it wasn't unworkable. As a passenger you did sometimes notice that the train doors weren't aligned perfectly with the platform doors. Now days, of course, it stops perfectly every time.
