Well, The crown passes to Liverpool Street, favoured by a new line but perhaps other factors at play at Waterloo.

So WAT slips to third, behind LIV and PAD then.

Is Guildford a NR^» (Network Rail - home page) run station? SWR^» (South Western Railway - about) surely?

I believe is IS Network Rail - services from Great Western, South Western and formerly Cross Country.

[ChrisB]

It is - an oddity, not particularly large, or strategic. Probably ought to lie with SWR^» (South Western Railway - about)?

The NR^» (Network Rail - home page) stations are -

    Birmingham New Street
    Bristol Temple Meads
    Clapham Junction
    Edinburgh Waverley
    Glasgow Central
    Guildford

It was only transferred in 2018 - from an NR^» (Network Rail - home page) statement at the time:

Network Rail have taken over Guildford and Clapham Junction stations to support ongoing delivery of the Railway Upgrade Plan.

The stations became Network Rail managed stations earlier this month to support the major schemes planned for both stations, which will be led by Network Rail.

A £150 million redevelopment of Guildford station has been approved by the planning inspectorate and Network Rail also has aspirations to increase train capacity with a new platform and track works.

At Clapham Junction, Network Rail is developing options to relieve congestion in the short term and investigating the feasibility of a more significant station redevelopment in the longer-term.

Very impressive showing for Worcestershire Parkway.

You missed Okehampton I think. Comes under Dartmoor Railway in the tables.
