There are many stations where everything calls - the very small exceptions are probably the interesting thing here.
York
My Manchester Victoria example noted aboveThis is an example of a station with 1 passing passenger service a day - are there any others?
There are already some TPE services that don't call at Darlington.Darlington. 1 per day Mon-Fri (05:40 Edinburgh-London King's Cross - 1E01) and 1 per day Sun (11:47 Aberdeen-London King's Cross - 1E19).
Although I believe that will change with the start of the new timetable when a couple of TPE services in each direction Mon-Fri and a couple northbound on Sunday will skip Darlington.
Not sure if its stil
l the case, but there used to be one early morning Bristol TM to Paddington that didnt stop at Reading. Im pretty sure thats the only service either way that doesnt stop there
Without defining "regular" All passenger trains passing through call at:
Coombe Junction Halt
If booked to call they go into the station. If not booked to call they reverse by the junction and don't run into the station.
Not here, as Greenford is a terminus station. You can tell from the buffer stops.... Am I allowed to say Greenford?
Diverted trains aren't that interesting here, in my opinion, as they pass non-stop through almost any station which is off the train's normal route.Also - the Hertford Loop? iirc just a few diversionary early-morning Sunday runs (assuming no Engineering work and no class 700 stuck in the wires...)
On Monday, I can see the 17:36, 18:37 and 19:12 trains from London Paddington skip Reading, and also the 05:56 from Swansea.Not sure if its stil

The 8:06 Metro from South Hylton to Newcastle Airport doesn't stop there on Sundays. That's it, as far as I can see.Does anything not stop at Newcastle? A handful of ECML services miss York but not Newcastle IIRC. It's so slow to traverse the Tyne they may as well stop, and I guess crew changes are usually done there.

Well that's end of thread then Bravo!Not here, as Greenford is a terminus station. You can tell from the buffer stops.

Regarding the "1 a day" thing cuccir mentioned, there are a few which are passed by 1 train a week. Examples include:
08:55 from Birmingham New Street to Redditch passes Alvechurch on Sundays.
23:03 from Fishguard Harbour to Swansea passes Llanell on Sundays. There may be other station on the line for which this is the only train to pass without calling, but Llanelli's easy to check.
I'm sure there are others.
I've attached a file containing locations derived from a timetable file at data.atoc.org which have fewer than 8 schedules which show trains as passing them, and also have trains shown as calling there. There are limitations to the data (the timetable simply doesn't record when a train passes some stations, and my list doesn't always record whether or not a train calls at a station correctly), but it may be interesting. The strings at the end of each line contain the timetable UID followed by the start date, and you should be able to use it to search the timetable file.

Why would a Metro skip such a key stop on a Sunday morning? I'd guess pathing but even then surprising that it's needed and that that's the one they skip
