Trivia: Rail services that call at a station multiple times

[cr767055]

I've been wondering recently - how common is it to get a rail service which calls at one calling point multiple times?

I'm thinking Salisbury - Romsey - Southampton Central - Romsey, which effectively does a loop of Southampton, before terminating somewhere it's already been to.

What doesn't count is a train terminating and then filling a loop. For example, how Southeastern Highspeed trains run from STP to Ramsgate via Dover Priory, terminate, but then (some) continue to run to STP via Medway. This isn't valid since it's technically a new service.

I suppose reversing services could count. E.g. Brighton - Eastbourne - Hastings (or Ore), which call at Hampden Park before and after reversing.

There's still some Manchester Piccadilly to Manchester Piccadilly via Hadfield and Glossop services that call at all stations bar Hadfield and Glossop twice - they run under the same headcode all the way:

Until a few years ago there was a teatime Lancaster-Leeds via Morecambe service that called at Bare Line twice - on the way into and out of Morecambe, before proceeding to Carnforth via the Hest Bank curve.

All trains to and from Wick stop twice at Georgemas Junction as they go to Thurso to reverse.
