New article Split platform
editThe article Split platform has been created, it is currently proposed for deletion as only an unreferenced dictionary definition, but may be possible to merge, or at least included in this article if a reference can be found, as mentions of split platforms in other articles appear to refer to a subtopic of side platforms. —Snigbrook 13:54, 26 January 2009 (UTC)
For what reason are these ever used in elevated systems
editThey do nothing but make it a hassle, especially for new users who don't know which side to be on. Is there an advantage I'm not thinking of? Daniel Christensen (talk) 21:44, 17 November 2011 (UTC)
Definition
editThe definition given in this article "A side platform is a platform positioned to the side of a pair of tracks" doesn't describe some designs that are described in their own Wikipedia articles as side platforms. For example, Forest Glen station begins "Forest Glen is a side platformed Washington Metro station", even though the platforms aren't to the side of the tracks; each platform is to the side of one track, but the platforms are between the pair of tracks, not the other way around.47.139.42.78 (talk) 22:34, 23 June 2019 (UTC)
Stub notice
editShould this article still be considered a stub? It has multiple categories and a good amount of information, and the basic nature of the topic means there isn’t all that much to say about it anyway. Yellowleaf23 (talk) 13:08, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
