Another station that has both through and bay platforms would be, er, Manchester Victoria (!)

Since when did Manchester Vicky have bays!?

Manchester Oxford Road has through and bay and is also in Manchester.

Last I checked Pfms 1 and 2 were bay platforms, and there were also several others before Metrolink operation started. And last I checked was about 30 seconds ago - or, if it has to be in person, ~24.15 days ago.

Might as well complete the set...

Manchester Airport is the last of the four stations whose name begins with "Manchester". It, however, has no through platforms.

Tees-side Airport, Another Airport station however this one has no trains (well 2 per week lol)

 

[Welshman]

Apparently, Teeside Airport is the 2nd least-used Network Rail station in Britian. The pride of place goes to Coombe Junction Halt

 

[Anon Mouse]

Clapham Junction, another 'Junction' station, Is it still the busieset railway junction in the UK?

Still the busiest in Europe by traffic (i.e. train) numbers I believe?

Havant also sees a large number of SN and SWT services each hour, as well as input from a third TOC (FGW services at Havant are of coruse much rarer than LOROL at Clapham Junction, but the point still stands).

Amazingly, the stereotypical Parly station - Denton - is 41st! Reddish South however is 3rd :?

When this station was in its heyday, it had TEN bay platforms (all east-facing) that were platforms 1 to 10.

 

[VTPreston_Tez]

One of the main terminating stations from Wallington is Sutton.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Leyland is also a four-platform station.

It is the last of the stations, unless of course you count "Manchester United Football Club"

Anyway, moving on from Leyland, we can have Darwen, also a former bus builder from Lancashire.

That last answer suspiciously sounded like an answer from the "Settlement Association" quiz....:roll:

Eccles railway station and Eccles Metrolink station are quite a good distance apart. Have a look on Google or on an atlas of the area.

 

[Welshman]

Do I assume, then, we're still at Heworth?

Bradford also has a station with the suffix "Interchange"

Bradford Interchange

 

[Anon Mouse]

On a serious note, Newcastle is another station where the suffix "Central" is rarely seen these days.
