According to some embodiments, a boxcar door operating system comprises a rotating plate, a first lock bar, and a second lock bar. The rotating plate comprises a first lock bar engagement for engaging and disengaging the first lock bar and a second lock bar engagement for engaging and disengaging the second lock bar. An angular position of the first lock bar engagement with respect to a center of rotation of the rotating plate is different than an angular position of the second lock bar engagement with respect to the center of rotation of the rotating plate such that rotation of the rotating plate engages or disengages the first lock bar at a different time than the second lock bar.
