another 3 - Mansion House

5 - Ealing Broadway

North Greenwich - 3 platforms.

Gloucester Road - 3 platforms.

1 - Heathrow Terminal 4

3 platforms - Edgeware, Stanmore

1 platform - Mill Hill East. Are High Barnet & Finchley Central 3s? Been a while since I was last that way!

Another 3 for your list: Hammersmith H&C station.

Seven Sisters is another three-platformer.

...as is Tower Hill.

Technically, Clapham North, and Clapham Common have ONE platform each catering for both sides! The platform[s] there are somewhat narrow!

Cheeky, but true!

;-}

In fact, it might be worth plundering Clive's Underground Line Guide for this information: http://www.davros.org/rail/culg/

Golders Green - 5 (although not all in use)

Stratford has 5 - 3 jub, 2 central
Leytonstone has 3
Woodford has 3
Hainault has 3
North Acton has 3
Holborn has 5 (if you include the out of use Aldywch platform )

Morden has 5 fronts for 3 tracks.

3 at Leytonstone.

Stamford Brook is 3 - there is a platform on the WB Piccadilly but not on the EB Piccadilly.

Plaistow, Barking, Dagenham East and Upminster are also 3

Kensington Olympia has 1.

At the risk of sounding like an overly pompous Mornington Crescent adjudicator (who has spent far too many hours of his life over several decades waiting for trains there, or preferably getting fast non-stopping trains through there) I'm gonna dispute that Barking one.

Yes, Platform 2 is eastbound District, Platform 3 is Hammersmith & City Line, Platform 6 is westbound District.
But the eastbound district trains also open their doors on the other side, on an unnumbered platform that provides cross-platform interchange with the GOBLIN on Platform 1. So really I make that 4 platforms served by tube trains.

dg writes: Agreed. Barking goes.

Putney Bridge, however, I do propose as a legit odd-number of platforms used by tube trains stations (3)

White City, 3 platforms, well 3 tracks, a central bay but the doors only ever [in my experience] open on ONE side, so that makes THREE used platforms! [but maybe 4 technically! But I'm gunning for 3!]

Richmond has 3 terminating platforms. Technically five, but the two closest to the main line tracks are only ever used by Overground trains.

I've seen trains at White City on the central track with doors open on both sides - they sometimes do this after arriving from central London and heading back Eastbound.
But the two platforms there are numbered 1 & 2, and 3 & 4 - so I don't think it counts.

Not an odd number of platforms but two more this weekend for Willesden Green. As one of the comments here suggested some time ago, the Metropolitan Line is going to stop at Willesden Green this weekend (it's mentioned in tiny fonts after the list of bus replacement services). Earlier this afternoon, I've seen that indeed the gates were unlocked and the disused platforms tidied up. I wonder why they've waited so much to come up with this simple and useful idea.
