platforms 14 and 15. *Along with a single lead NR track in from Subway
Junction, to platform 16, this would allow same direction cross-
platform interchange.

Surely the NR platforms are all terminus platforms, in which case even
with the layout you propose, 50% of the time they would be opposite
direction cross platform interchanges, which aren't any improvement on
what we have today.
