Taking guards off trains is a really bad idea, especially for women passengers who can be vulnerable. My wife hated our local station (and stopped traveling by train) because after about 5pm there was absolutely no-one around and the whole place was dark and deserted with all the offices locked up - no place for a women to be on her own.
Security cameras are all very well after the event, which is too late.
