Headbolt Lane will be a Merseyrail managed station.

If you are excluding TOCs with zero stations than Heathrow Express wins as they manage three stations (T123 and T4 and T5) only.

Heathrow Express is a funny one though, they are a subsidiary of Heathrow Airport which owns the line and the service isnt competed as a franchise but a management contract awarded by the Airport rather than the Dft to GWR to run it on their behalf.

At opening, management of Heathrow infrastructure, including stations and their staffing was the responsibility of Heathrow Express Operating Company (HEOC)

HEOC was disbanded on 30th October 2018, when HEx was split up by function - Infrastructure, Operations and Commercial.

HEx retained Operations and Commercial, contracting out the Commercial aspect to GWR.

Heathrow Infrastructure and Stations (inc Staffing) passed to direct control by Heathrow Airport Ltd.

As such Heathrow Express (the TOC) manage zero stations - same as XC, Caledonian and Lumo.
