I believe the NY subways use that method…Track numbering at this station is odd. One platform has tracks 1 and 3, the other has 2 and 4.
That was the NY Central track numbering scheme. Tracks in one direction would be numbered 1, 3, 5, 7 etc, and in the other direction 2, 4, 6, 8 etc. True even for main line tracks.I believe the NY subways use that method…
New Haven station tracks were rearranged to place the two main line tracks and loops for each at the station end mainly to handle through Amtrak trains. Those are 3,1,2,4. The primarily MNRR terminating platform tracks are all even numbered. Just an interesting use of the NYC/NH numbering scheme.New Haven Union has a similar numbering scheme: closest to the station building is 1&3, then 2&4, 6 is only passthrough, then 8&10, and 12&14. 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13 don't exist.
