The page also talks about lengthening tram platforms at West Croydon,
although I couldn't quite find enough info to make sense of that. I
would have imagined that all the tram platforms are the same length, and
there would be no point in lengthening one unless you lengthen them all.




It's actually East Croydon where they propose lengthening the platforms
to accommodate four car trams, not West Croydon.


So are they saying that two trams per direction would dwell simultaneously
there, rather than there being "four car trams"?


you write that like there's some reason that would be a dumb operational
procedure
