Trivia: Stations with numbers in their name and route?

[Western Gaffer]

If we're getting irrational, then any station with an "e" in it counts!

More of them at weekends then?

 

[Rescars]

Have we included Three Cocks Junction or Three Counties yet? Or Forty Hill?

There appears to have been a station called Four Roads, but for goods only.

Just for clarification from the OP - @TheTallOne - did you intend to only list stations which are currently open to passengers....or closed stations too?

Has anyone said Outwood?

Yes....your good self in post #42! Deja-vue?

While struggling to sleep last night, I was trying to see if I could (phonetically) count to ten in French using British station names... Some are a bit of a stretch, admittedly!
1. Great Malv-un (Great Malvern)
2. Hud-deux-sfield (Huddersfield)
3. Trois-ford (Twyford)
4. Quatre-ford (Catford)
5. Cinq-y for Penketh (Sankey for Penketh)
6. Six-cale (Seascale)
7. Sept-le (Settle)
8. Huit-on (Weeton)
9. Pen-neuf-ffordd (Penyffordd)
10. Had to cheat a little and stay on the Borderlands Line for the proposed station at: Dix-side Parkway (Deeside Parkway).

Yes, I need to get out more!

A French speaker might pronounce Diss in the same way as the number?

 

[RailAleFan]

Tweedbank has the highest number expressed in base-16 (Hex) at 978,362

Good point, a bit less of a "cheat" there.

For completion, there's also:
11. Onze-dell & Fairhaven (Ansdell & Fairhaven)
12. Douze-bury (Dewsbury)

 

[Harpo]

Three Horse Shoes. (In the nineties one of the signallers there was a Mr Outlaw….)

The late Ken Howard (1H84 etc. author) enjoyed the word play of stations beginning ‘St’ becoming ‘Saint’. A couple of favourites were,

St. One Bridge (Stonebridge) Park
St. One Haven
Etc..

I was thinking open stations as it'd be fun to see how long it would take to visit a load of them in numerical order. But it's just for fun so anything goes.

HersTON Halt @ Swanage Railway.

 

[Pat Figg]

Aberdaugleddau (Milford Haven). Literally, "Mouth of the two Cleddau rivers".
Maesteg (Ten Fields)
Penrhyndeudraeth (Head of Two Beaches)

I'm no Welsh speaker but doesn't Maesteg actually translate as Fair Field? Teg=Fair, Deg=Ten.

How many stations are there whose names are solely composed of numeric or mathematical symbols I wonder?
If you accept mixed notations ‘Lee’ would be an example. In the future ‘Pill’ on the Portishead branch would sort of qualify (Pi+two Roman Ls).
