Multiple track layouts

[Ploughman]

Ok I know we have had current and recent threads on Quad layouts.

My query is "Where were the most tracks to run parallel?"
Not including sidings but purely regularly used lines in normal service.

Without a track map it is not possible to be exact but there are at least 18 immediately east of Clapham Junction station.

Six together between Bushey and on the approach to Euston and Finchley Rd and Harrow-on-the-Hill (albeit 4 LUL on the latter) are the first that come to mind - where they cross near Kenton is the only pass in Britain where two stretches of 6-track line do so.

Waterloo-Clapham Jn as well.

There are loads around stations only that are 6 track or more too.

There's the 10 (I think) track section to the east of London Bridge.

It's briefly 8 at Wembley Park where the met lines become fast and slow and jubilee and Chiltern. Only for a short period is it eight tracks though.

Outside of London, there's 7 in regular use at Manchester (Piccadilly) G, US, DS, UF, DF, UE, DE...

This super-detailed Underground map has the the track layout around Clapham- I make it 19 (including the lines diving under from Platforms 16/17 to Latchmere no 1 Junction), plus there's a short siding in the midst of that all!

How about next to the old Willesden Freightliner terminal.

Up and Dn Relief (LLG)
4x WCML
Up and Dn DC
Up and Dn City

Quite a good total for six miles out from a major station.

Redhill has 14 tracks side by side, if you include sidings which are completely overgrown and rarely, if ever, used (and which will probably, quite sensibly, soon be demolished).

If that doesn't count, it has 8 lines through the station (Goods 1*, Goods 2*, Platform 1 US, Platform 2 US, UML, DML, Platform 3 DS and Platform 4 Bay).

Then you have the Quarry Line, which forms the real-life Up and Down Fasts, if you like.

I have confirmed this with Google Maps, plus, you know, it's one of my local stations.

*Unsure of the official designation.
