station platforms
Boarding areas, trackside
Station platforms are the raised surfaces alongside railroad or subway tracks where passengers board and exit trains.
The platform sits at car-floor height, bridging the gap between ground level and train entrance: Passengers crowded the station platform during rush hour.
The term sometimes appears in discussions of transit accessibility or crowd management.
