I would actually prefer it if we could lay down a seperate station hall.
And be able to snap platforms against straight pieces of track. Would make inline stations so much easier.
Station hall and platforms are mysteriously connected with a tunnel (like they are now).
But I’m just dreamin’.
Also, on the Dutch A/B platforms. It happens more often that two trains linked together stop at an A/B platform, and then disconnect and both head to different destinations. You are right in that the platforms are created so that either the front or the back train can leave first. But it’s usually not two trains coming from opposite directions because of the danger of a collision. This only happens on the stations with a long platform length.
