Haunted Forrest 🌲 added,
The platform is the most important part of a station! Must be better than a strip of pavement at more-or-less ground level
High platforms are not only essential from the perspectives of operating efficiency and accessibility, but also (especially) aesthetics!
Being eye-to-eye w train wheels when one approaches is noisy, intimidating...it is what people who try to trespass on tracks should fear...
...not what people who have paid to ride the train should have to be faced with! Show riders the appropriate part: the doors, windows, etc
