Talk:Frankston railway station/Archive 1

Latest comment: 6 years ago by InternetArchiveBot in topic External links modified

Both platforms at Frankston station are inbound and outbound. One platform is a terminus, the other is accessible from both directions. To say that one platform is outbound and the other is inbound suggests that trains arrive on one platform and do not leave, and trains leave from one platform, but do not arrive. Trains leave and arrive from both platforms, and on the non terminus platform trains leave and arrive from both directions. - Anonymous user at 210.84.196.27


The terms "inbound" and "outbound" refer to the direction of the train in reference to the city, not in reference to the individual station - that's just ridiculous. Many stations do have one platform specifically for city-bound (or "inbound") trains, and another platform for trains heading away from the city (or "outbound") trains. However, it turns out in this particular case that you're correct anyway - Frankston does have one terminus platform which trains both arrive and depart from, and the other platform which continues on to Stony Point also has trains passing in both directions. My mistake - though I stand by the terminology, I just described the platforms incorrectly in this particular case. - Vaelor 09:34, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)

By adding my statement I wished to explain my reason for deleting the terms “inbound” and “outbound”. I may have been pedantic in using those terms in reference to the station. --210.84.196.27 11:58, 14 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Adding bus services at the Station may be useful? --Commking 2 October 2005
