Answer» Answer: Types of platform Platform types INCLUDE the bay platform, side platform (also called through platform), split platform and the island platform. A bay platform is one at which the TRACK terminates, i.e. a dead-end or siding. Trains serving a bay platform must REVERSE in or out. A side platform is the more usual TYPE, alongside tracks where the train arrives from one end and leaves towards the other. An island platform has through platforms on both sides; it may be INDENTED on one or both ends, with bay platforms. To reach an island platform there may be a bridge, a tunnel, or a level crossing. The climb up to the bridge or down to the tunnel may use stairs, ramps, escalators, lifts, or a combination of the above. p1 |
