My wife wants to know whether "Mind the Gap" as used on London
Underground is used on railways, metros outside London (I'm pretty
certain that announcements are made on Platform 17 at Clapham Junction
- the phrase is certainly picked out in white paint as you step off
the train) but for the life of me I can't think of any examples of
seeing it written or hearing it on PA systems elsewhere in the UK.
I'd be grateful for any examples, o wise ones!

I'd say it was grossly over-used on LU. It's used at many station with
straight platforms and no significant gap, which means regular
passengers simply filter it out, even though there are a few stations
where you really do need to watch out (eg, the Central Bank platforms).
