The downtown SF BART stations have a clever way to deal with this -- the far wall of the station (the one that is behind the train when it arrives) has signs that say things like "Board 9 car trains here. Shorter trains" and then an arrow for where you're supposed to go.

It works well, but is more necessary there where trains can vary between 4 and 10 cars. But I think its perfectly suited to this situation.

Also, I totally agree with the comment on the NoMa station -- it sucks hitting the fare gate, seeing a "2" or less for your train, and having to break into a dead sprint to avoid missing it.
