We cannot use any preposition after REACH. It is ARRIVE that is followed by a preposition like at, to or on.

Like:

I reached my home. I have reached the Karachi.

If I am not wrong, Platform is also a place.

I saw him going down the stairs.

We use present/participle.

Check it out.

(3) I noticed Akbar was carrying a bag in his hand.

I noticed Akbar carrying a bag in his hand

http://www.cssforum.com.pk/116609-post170.html

I heard him say something his father. SAY DOESN'T SUIT AT ALL.

Well, to human is err.

I request to seniors members. Make me correct if I am wrong.

Regards.
To err is human (to forgive is divine).

Hhah, Yes, I know. I myself write this in this way. So, people say me. To err is human.

Well, Dear. What do you say about the question SAYING?

Correct use of the verb following HEAR.

1. I heard him say something to his father. (Verb + noun + infinitive)
2. I heard him saying something to his father. (verb + noun + -ing)
3. I heard that he was saying something to his father. (verb + that)

The most appropriate are 2nd last and Last.

My dear, all of them are evenly appropriate and applicable. Nothing of informality or disapproving is there in any of them.
