It would help a ton with managing crowds and not only for Empire Service (NEC would benefit as well!)The PRR did it for years by having numbered locations along the platform (i.e., just as is done with capital letters all over Europe) and announcing which cars would stop at each location. Of course that would require admitting passengers to the platform before the train's arrival, and how do we know that would work?
