Bring back the eastern bore, then have the tracks running primarily

When they open the 'new' platform on the taxi road, are they still planning
to call it "Platform Y", or have they come to their senses and agreed to
renumber the existing platforms.

I think there was a fear of confusing the signals folk - apparently they
could re-sign the platforms, but they'd run out of dymolabels to sort out
the signals diagrams ...

I thought British Rail Cased some years ago ?
