platform number
Train boarding designation
A platform number identifies which platform a train will arrive at or depart from in a railway station.
Stations with multiple platforms assign numbers so passengers know where to wait: The 8:15 to Edinburgh leaves from platform number 7.
Announcements and departure boards display platform numbers, which may change shortly before departure.
