It describes the SLL platform as 2b and the WLL as 2a, but the latter
may well be renumbered as 1, as there is no hope of getting the original
platform 1 back in service.

That makes me wonder, are there any stations in the UK or elsewhere
that have a continuous platform with different numbers at either end?
On the continent, Basel may be an example, for interesting reasons.

Perhaps we can exclude bay platforms for now, such as Woking's
platform 3.

Actually (South to North) 1A, 1, 4 and 4A these days.

Gloucester 1 & 2.

Most of the platforms at Bristol Temple Meads in the middle (5-9) are like that.

5 & 7 on the same platform, 8&9, perhaps even 10 &11 but I am not 100% sure on that. There's a bay platform (1) on platform 3 as well.

York 3 & 4 (under the previous numbering, it was 8a and 8b, the only
sub-divided platform there).

On second thoughts, I think it was 8S and 8N.
