Really? I would have thought having a wall of commuters between the
kids and the edge of the platform would make the kids less likely
to be able to fall onto the tracks rather than letting families on
first (and hence being closer to the platform edge). But thats
just my opinion


Oh, I see, what you *really* want is for the commuters to be let on
first to populate the platform edge, and therefore get on the trains
first. So much for "no preferential treatment".
