🔸Attached picture illustrates different types of platform. Platform 1 is a “bay” platform, while platforms 2, 3 and 4 are “side or through" platforms. The platform accommodating 3 and 4 is an “island” platform.
🔸A bay platform is one at which the track terminates, i.e. a dead-end or siding. Trains serving a bay platform must reverse in or out.

In a double discharge platform, commuters can board or alight from trains from both sides of the compartment, resulting in swifter evacuation of commuters from the stations and more importantly, result in decongesting the foot over bridges.
