I suggest you are both correct but it depends on what you call
platform.

Isn't there a gap there between the train and that northern 'platform'
area, so trains couldn't actually stop in that area (as the tracks are
curving)?

I'll check this coming week but I don't remember there being a gap
larger than a normal curved platform on the other hand I'll concede
I'd never thought about it.

If you look at the diagram captioned 'The New Layout' in
http://www.londonreconnections.com/2...s-blackfriars/, it
looks like the usable platform area does not include the section where
the
line curves to connect to the old ramp. The northern end of the actual
platforms is now over the river, whereas it used to be well inland. It
certainly explains why the walk to the platforms from the northern
station
entrance is now so long.


What about bus stops within London? Which are the two closest on one
route and which are the two furthest?

What about in other cities?


Shortest, maybe between Surbiton Telephone Exchange & Berrylands Road on
the K2 .
