Given there's a couple of thousand stations, surely this runs well over 100? Polmont and Larbert for two. Glasgow Queen Street

Not sure if it counts but Orton Mere on the Nene Valley Railway does.

Angel Road - Though I believe it's technically a trio of viaducts rather than a bridge. Regardless, they cross over the London end of the platforms.

Dagenham Dock - The A13 crosses the London end of the platforms, though again may technically be a viaduct at that point.

Question: Did the former WCML platforms at Carnforth continue under the road bridge?

Good shout! Certainly wasn't good for my lungs to park a Deltic underneath it...

I believe that the A14 viaduct at Huntingdon station passes above the northern end of southbound Platform 2.

Huntingdon has a bridge over a bridge over the station:

A14 goes over the road and railway.

Beat that!

A road bridge goes over the gap between the two platforms at Kirkby, I suppose that counts.
