Which station has the most passenger trains going through it (calling, passing, originating and terminating all count) in any given hourly time period (so something like 7:36 to 8:36 would be allowed, it is not just exact hour periods).

This may be me answering my own thread but is it Clapham Junction? I cant find out the exact number of tph since SWR have uploaded the COVID timetable all the way to December so RTT doesnt show the normal timetable for SWR.

Clapham Jn, London Bridge and East Croydon must be the top 3 by a distance I reckon?

I'm not sure how much use this will be, as I'm only referencing data for trains that call to pick up or drop down passengers at stations for whole hours (i.e xx:00 - xx:59). Anyway, here are the top results for the May 2020 timetable (COVID alterations are not included in this):
1 - Clapham Junction - 148 trains between 18:00-18:59 Monday - Friday.
2 - London Bridge - 146 trains between 08:00 - 08:59 Monday - Friday
3 - Waterloo - 105 trains between 08:00 - 08:59 Monday - Friday
4 - Liverpool St - 98 trains between 08:00 - 08:59 & 18:00-18:59 Monday - Friday
5 - Glasgow Central - 92 trains between 08:00 - 08:59 Monday - Friday

For clarification, LU, DLR and any tram networks are not included, since they would massively ruin the figures. A figure including LU would likely have Kings Cross St Pancras as the highest by far. ECS movements are also not included.
