That makes me wonder, are there any stations in the UK or elsewhere that
have a continuous platform with different numbers at either end?

York 3 & 4 (under the previous numbering, it was 8a and 8b, the only
sub-divided platform there).

Chicago?

Speaking from memory, Chicago Union Station is basically two terminii
arranged head to head with the passenger handling facilities in the
middle. There are no actual through trains as all Amtrak services
start or end there. One of the outer platforms is continuous though,
with a through track provided to permit ECS moves between the two
station halves, but is operationally used as two separate platforms.
