The train for Bristl TM left Cardiff from platform 0. Nearly as unlikely as platform 9 3/4.

How odd Columba, the train we caught from Newark Northgate to Kings X arrived at platform 0 and I remarked on it to OH. It must be a new thing with Network Rail ir whoever owns the stations.

Platform 0 arises when a new platform is built next to the existing platform 1, and the powers that be think it's too much like hard work for the passengers to relearn all the platform numbers..

First item ticked off to-do list. It wasn't an item in capitals.

With King's Cross, it was because they extended the station adding a new platform next to the old platform 1, and numbered it 0 instead of renumbering all of them. Between you you've just collected half the platform 0s in the UK. There are dozens of them in Japan.

minemura.org

I know this because I use Kings Cross a lot and the guy who runs that site commented on a photo I posted of its Platform 0 under construction, rather than being a massive platform numbering nerd.

Apparently Chris can type more quickly and more to the point than I can :)

I have replaced the batteries in the TV remote.

The old ones were flat, so it wasn't working.
