Do all train stations have barriers?

All stations built after the mid-2000s have some form of platform barrier.

At many crossings, there will be a barrier (or gate in the US) added to the signal, which descend over the road and block entry. The barriers will be fully lowered 15 to 20 seconds before the train arrives (US), and will rise and the signals will shut off once the end of the train clears the island circuit.

Platform screen doors (PSDs), also known as platform edge doors (PEDs), are used at some train, rapid transit and people mover stations to separate the platform from train tracks, as well as on some bus rapid transit, tram and light rail systems.

Automatic crossings generally have no or half-width barriers to prevent cars and pedestrians becoming trapped on the tracks with no escape, and manually-operated crossings have full-width barriers (either 2 or 4 arms which block the whole road).

Ticket barriers were installed at the start of 2009 and became operational shortly before the end of April in the same year.
