If you mean which platform it will arrive at, the signaller will know. Even though it may be allocated one it can be moved easily due to Centrals hectic nature. I'd punt for 3 or 4 though

It will hve to be platforms 3 & 4 as i dont think you can have two way movement on platforms 0-2 thats the reason why the ebbw vale line trains have to come in on platform 3/4 then shunt into canton before proceeding to platform 0

I know Platform 2 for a fact is Bi-Di
