I've ridden Metro North hundreds of times, and as clumsy and careless as I am (I once ran over my own foot while driving a car,) I never had a problem wtih the gap. There are big yellow decals that say "WATCH THE GAP" on the doors, and the edge of each platform is painted bright yellow to draw your attention downward. I've also never seen a gap wider than 6 or 8 inches.
