Is there a way of quickly identifying EMR and South Eastern trains on approach to determine which is the front or rear?
With EMR trains, on departure, A could be at the front or rear and the same with coach G if I'm not mistaken? Sometimes there's 2 first class coaches. Is there a way to tell by appearance for accessibility purposes (where ramp is required)?
As soon as the gates open, people rush on board at peak times and it's busy on platforms and even if ramp is already placed down, the view might be obstructed by sheer amount of people.
Also, the coach names beside the door might not have any text on before the doors open.
I see some EMR trains have bike logos on them (like in the picture) but it's normally a very small sticker on the end of a coach. Other times there's 2 trains on the platform and I'm often unsure which side of the train I'm supposed to be heading to (which is front and which is rear) as the view of my train on the platform is being blocked by the train beside it.
Am I right in thinking the trains on South Eastern with the 2 yellow dots on the coach is the front?
Is there a way to determine this with EMR trains?
I am aware some trains on EMR are numbered like the one to Corby and they have accessibility coaches usually in the second coach either side?
I know there's a few queries above. Any help would be most welcome. Thank you.
