Trivia: Terminus stations where most trains are through services

[158801]

I'm looking for stations with no through platforms. All platforms must have buffer stops. Also, the majority of trains at that station only call there as part of a longer journey so, by default would have to reverse.

Blackpool North wouldn't count. Although it's a terminus station there are no through trains (trains from A to C that call at Blackpool North enroute).

Bradford Interchange would qualify as it's a terminus and just trains call there on their way from Leeds to Manchester or York to Blackpool)

 

[The exile]

Eastbourne, Battersby, Colchester Town for starters

[A S Leib]

Glossop (or Hadfield? I can't remember which way round trains tend to go) and, counting tram stops, MediaCityUK? Thurso.

 

[MatthewE707]

Swansea

 

[Western Gaffer]

Thurso.

 

[MatthewE707]

Cromer

 

[A S Leib]

Bere Alston, Coombe Junction Halt (amongst the small number of trains there at all).

 

[Farigiraf]

Bourne End (off-peak), Eastbourne (3tph terminators, 2tph through), Cromer, Fort William (excluding Jacobite), Battersby, Littlehampton (2tph terminators, 2tph through), Coombe Junction Halt, Bere Alston, Carmarthen & Swansea (most non-GWR trains are through services), Glossop

 

[rower40]

Killarney. (Or it was when I was last there) Train arrives on the stops, then propells out to the junction signal, then forward again on the avoider to Tralee.

 

[Kite159]

Eastbourne, Battersby, Colchester Town for starters

I wouldn't count Colchester Town as majority seeing as half the trains terminate there (2tph).

 

[NSE]

Eastbourne isn’t the majority. It’s 1tph in the favour of terminating plus peak extras and those starting & terminating at the start and end of service.

There are plenty of through services though.

Bradford Interchange should win this with services to:

Halifax from Hull
Hull from Halifax
Huddersfield from Leeds
Leeds from Huddersfield
London Kings Cross from Halifax
Halifax from London Kings Cross
Chester from Leeds
Leeds from Chester
Manchester Vic from Leeds
Leeds from Manchester Vic
Blackpool from York
York from Blackpool
Leeds from Wigan
Wigan from Leeds

 

[Purple Train]

Bere Alston, Coombe Junction Halt (amongst the small number of trains there at all).

Bourne End (off-peak), Eastbourne (3tph terminators, 2tph through), Cromer, Fort William (excluding Jacobite), Battersby, Littlehampton (2tph terminators, 2tph through), Coombe Junction Halt, Bere Alston, Carmarthen & Swansea (most non-GWR trains are through services), Glossop

Pedantic I know, but, according to the OP's definition, I'm not sure Coombe Junction Halt does count, unless they've put up a buffer stop on the old freight line to Moorswater since I was last there.

 

[Western 52]

Carmarthen- many through services reverse there.

 

[geoffk]

Killarney. (Or it was when I was last there) Train arrives on the stops, then propells out to the junction signal, then forward again on the avoider to Tralee.

and Kilkenny (if we're including Ireland). I was going to add Bodmin General but the timetable shows two separate services operating (although it's usually the same train).

 

[Bill57p9]

Fort William meets the criteria outside Jacobite season

 

[norbitonflyer]

Fort William (excluding Jacobite),

....and Caledonian Sleeper

 

[Farigiraf]

....and Caledonian Sleeper

Though that's still just two trains per day, while all but two ScotRail services are through services, making it 4 terminating against 6 through. If you include the Jacobite, then through services are no longer the majority.
