According to the signs this new platform is for electric trains only, yet

saw an HST set in it on Saturday (13:36). Admittedly the engine wasn't
running on the power car under the buildings.

Is this a regular occurrence? If so why not change the signs?

How many other stations have unusual numbering for their platforms?

Obviously one could fill an entire thread with examples at Statford.

There's a Platform 0 at Haymarket as well as the ones at Stockport and
Cardiff Central that other posters have mentioned.

I suppose it's too much to hope that any platform 0 has a milepost 0 on it ?

Ah well, never mind,
