Default Kings Cross platform 0

Huddersfield has platforms numbered 1 2 4 5 6 and 8.

Not sure what happened to 3 and 7 though perhaps someone will come along to
tell us.


The oddest one I've seen (a bit OT this) was Newark Airport station in New
Jersey where the platforms are, if I recall, numbered 1,2,5 and 6. The
missing numbers 3 and 4 are the through roads used by non stopping trains
(Acela, etc). The station is fairly new and would never have had platforms
on the through roads, though I suppose we should bear in mind that the
Americans refer to track numbers, rather than platforms (Track 29, boy you
can give me a shine, etc)
