Clapham Jn might be another, but I can't get above 5 in either peak.London Bridge, numerous triples and a few fours so far, eg 1039, 1051 and 1105. Haven’t checked the whole day.
At 1105:
P8 Charing Cross SE
P5 Bedford TL
P6 Dartford SE
P4 Brighton TL
PS just found a group of six at 0821. I suggest London Bridge might be a winner...

Just imagine if security checks were not needed.At 0831 at London St Pancras there is a train to Shefield, Cambridge, and Paris Nord, probably the biggest difference if you got on the wrong 0831, Leicester, Finsbury Park or Paris!
Eight if you include Jubilee Line to Stratford and Northern Line to Morden.London Bridge, numerous triples and a few fours so far, eg 1039, 1051 and 1105. Haven’t checked the whole day.

I think that opens a large can of worms, maybe we should stick to National Rail...Eight if you include Jubilee Line to Stratford and Northern Line to Morden.
Only if someone can come up with a station which can beat London Bridge using either definition.I think that opens a large can of worms, maybe we should stick to National Rail...
Haymarket has points where there are 3 simultaneous departures (4 platforms with a bay - that bay isn't used for passenger services regularly).I have found 2 examples of 3 simultaneous departures from Bromley South (1734 & 18:03). Obviously doesn't set the record, but notable for this being just a 4-platform station. I won't keep looking for a 4-departure minute, but I wonder if there are stations of similar size which see so many trains leave together?

Is that just referred to as Waterloo by TfL? I know it's pedantic but there is a Waterloo East as well as London WaterlooI would have thought Waterloo would be in with a good chance then with the extra tube lines
Putting 'Waterloo Underground Station' into the 'next departures' search on the Traveline South East website leads to departures from London Waterloo also being shown (like putting 'London Bridge Underground Station' also showed national rail results). It shows 8 departures at 17:05 tomorrow. Two National Rail and 6 Underground.I would have thought Waterloo would be in with a good chance then with the extra tube lines
I usually beat them to almost Bethnal Green when the DM is reduced to 35 just as the DE goes to 40/50. As it stops, the one on the DS loses every time.Liverpool St has 00 and 30 departures to Enfield, Norwich and Shenfield. 11.00 yesterday saw all three heading up the hill to Bethnal Green side by side.
Leeds has some impressive ones:
1718 Skipton
1718 Manchester Victoria
1718 Manchester Airport (calling at Manchester Victoria)
1738 Knaresborough
1738 Lincoln Central
1738 York
Like Clapham Junction and London Bridge already. Different directions alone probably isn’t going to lift those NW stations very high up the list. A quick check of RTT shows some double departures, but none at all for Blackburn...I'm wondering about a station such as Preston or Lancaster or Blackburn, where services could leave at the same time from different directions...
Is the 18:15 to Crewe not the Edinburgh service?Birmingham New Street? - 18:15 Edinburgh/Bromsgrove/Four Oaks/Crewe
