In 2014 will it be necessary to make use of either stairs or a lift to access the platform you are on?

Does the platform you are on exist in 2014?

Well I'd sort of assumed it wasn't Saturday 12 November 1955, the day on which Les McKeown was born. However it's possible that he was born earlier in the day, so I suppose we can't rule that out... and The Orange One did seem a little uncertain about the answer to (18).

So I'll ask: is it Saturday 12 November 1955?

Right! Well I'll leave my colleague to sort out the station and platform number - although I think I know where you are I'm not entirely certain, and I don't want to waste any more questions.

Yes, I am. You've just got the wrong disused platform! I would suggest a map of the station. (26/30)

The only other disused platform with an odd number I can find is platform 11.

This platform, from the information I can find, still exists, but has just renamed as platform 10.
