One for the dev team but where is Platform 4 at Eastbourne? I can see Platforms 1 to 3 but no Platform 4 even though the simplifier shows Platform 4 as a location.

It was removed in 1991 when the signalling presented in the sim was commissioned. It may well be present to facilitate import of data or future proofing any eras. I cant really answer that as I'm not the developer.

According to Wikipedia, there are currently only 3 platforms.

Platform 4 was taken out of use and the track was lifted during the Eastbourne re-signalling in 1991.

Everything that you make will be useful - providing it's made of chocolate.

Platform 4 was initially added, however other changes would have needed a major rewrite of areas that were already committed (Seaford branch had already been done and Seaford station would have needed fairly major alterations to the track data, this originally had at least one siding, 2 platforms and double track between Seaford and Newhaven Harbour). However I did then make a conscious decision to keep it as future proofing.
