Well some stations have a mix of subsurface and tube construction. But
for the purposes of this arguement I would count them as different
stations.


Minor point - they're not different stations. Perhaps you think a basement
isn't part of the building thats sitting on top of it because one was dug
and the other was built?

Define "Station". In my mind Waterloo is one station. I catch
trains, from platforms, there. However, Network Rail and TfL define
it as at least three stations, Waterloo Main, Waterloo East, and
Waterloo Underground.


Even normals would tend to differentiate Waterloo and Waterloo East.

Historically there could be said to be up to 6 different stations the

Waterloo LSWR
Waterloo SER
Waterloo & City Line
Bakerloo Line
Northern Line
Jubilee Line
Waterloo International

First and last are physically in the same building but were operated as
two seperate stations.
