What would be the average length of a passenger rail platform?

Question

Take a stab at a number. (wild guess)

Answer 1

Depends where you are in the world, what railway you're on, and what line you're on.

The Network Southeast area of England (as it was) had 12-car platforms for major routes. But 8-car platforms are more common - that would be just over 160m.

Answer 2

that would depend on the railway itself and the length of the train. the platform is usually longer than the train. the number of passengers also play a factor.

Answer 3

longest platform would be in UK 700ft  12 car train each car apx 55ft  = 660ft
