Plymouth East-Facing Platforms/Sidings

[XCTurbostar]

Hi all,
At the southern end of Plymouth Station, there are two east-facing bay platforms occupying what appear to have been platforms 1 and 2.
What are the official names of these sidings? they don't seem to appear on schedules as down sidings or platforms 1/2.

Many thanks!

They are Dock 2 and Dock 3. Dock 3 being the one closest to platform 4. Sometimes the schedules have 'DK2' or 'DK3', not always however. They occupy the north end of what was platform 2 and 3. Platform 1 was a bay where the staff car park is now.
