"These (platforms) are connected by a pedestrian crossing directly over the tracks and a pedestrian subway." I'm not sure if this is entirely correct. As far as I remember, the only access to platforms 1 and 2 are the subway. There is also a pedestrian crossing over the tracks but I don't know how this links to the platforms. I thought this crossing was simply a crossing with no direct connection to the platforms. --  B.d.mills  (Talk) 13:12, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

You're probably right. I wrote that based on my memory of the station, but now that I think of it, I'm not so sure. Ambi 13:20, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
My recollection is that the subway has stairs leading up to the station entrance to the third platform - but admittedly it's been years since I was using Ormond regularly. But now that I think of it, there's no space between the station and the side street on the north side for the stairs to exit northwards. Josh Parris 00:10, 21 Apr 2005 (UTC)
You are correct, there is no access to platform 1&2 from the pedestrian crossing over the tracks, also there are no stairs up to the platform from the subway, just a ramp. There is however stairs going down into the subway from the East side of the station, which is slightly to the east of platform 3, the ramp directly next to the stairs leads straight to platform 3 from the subway, however platform 3 can be accessed from the street. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.49.176.147 (talk) 04:24, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

"However, most trains that pass through Ormond stop there." The morning and evening peak 'express' trains do not stop at ormond, however the 'limited express' service does. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.49.176.147 (talk) 04:24, 5 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
