That sounds reasonable enough. On NR ramps are located on each platform.
Would definitely have to be padlocked on Tube as some yobbo would throw
them on the tracks. Wouldn't be a good idea on subsurface lines though.
But see above - platform humps are the answer.

Anyway, wheelchairs don't need dead flat access everywhere.
