Dear Christian,

> 2. A <platformEdge> contains the following attributes:
> - position information: defines the starting position and direction
> of the platform
> - length: the length of the platform from an operational view
> (usable length)
> - height: the platform's height in mm above rails
> - side: right, left (seen in positive direction of the track)

This leaves the question 'Where shall a train to stop at a platform which
is longer than the train?' for future RailML extensions.

(This question is relatively important in practice - it can even influence
the official run time of a train. This is also the question about 'stop
posts' - H-Tafeln - and whether there can be none or more than one at a
platform and how they are valid.)

Dirk.
