[Standing on the right]
It appears to be a London-only convention. IME most people respond to a
polite "please stand on the right" request.

I've seen it all over Europe. "Rechts stehen, links gehen", or simply
an icon showing someone standing on the right and walking on the left
(difficult to show on one image!). Not always self-enforced, but
seems to work in Paris, for example.
