After being challenged to do so, I used every platform at Clapham Junction station! Which is also the busiest station in the country in the number of trains that use it!

Good luck doing london euston where the platform isnt even known until 2 seconds before the train

Leeds could be interesting challenge to try and get in 0-17 Some get very little use.

No completion until you have platform 8!

I was at Clapham Junction once, and they had to close platforms 5 & 6, So they Used Platforms 7 & 8.

Now it’s time to visit every platform in a station with only 1 platform

Every platform from Birmingham New Street. A, B and C separate if in Expert mode. Or for an easier task early in the morning, every platform at Polesworth.

I dare you to do St Pancras. There are "only" 15 platforms (1-13, A&B), but 6 of them require you to wait in line for a ticket to Europe and back (at least until they return Eurostar to Kent).

A pointless exercise .But strangely compelling

Clapham Junction... next stop, London Waterloo and all 24 platforms?

Temple Meads might be a fun one to do, as it would only be Platform 1 then 3 - 15.

A few services use platform 8 each day according to Realtime Trains, but I'm not sure whether you're actually allowed to board/alight. It appears to be used mostly for late-running services which skip CLJ to recover time.

If you want to do an even sillier version of this, Leeds has 18. It had 17 but a few years back they tagged in a 0 Platform because they ran out of room to do it on the other side. Allegedly this at the time gave Leeds both the highest and lowest numbered platform in the country.

Also I'm fairly certain none of them are out of order

Dammit... you have me eyeing up Shinjuku now...

Stratford springs to mind for your next challenge. A smorgasbord of different train types: National Rail, Overground, Underground, Elizabeth Line and DLR. Then you've got Wimbledon with National Rail, Underground and Croydon Tram Network.
