EMT
Northern
FTPE
VT
CC
ATW
Can anybody else think of somewhere with more?

NXEA does indeed serve peterborough.
Britain's Busiest Railway Station (so say the signs) - Clapham Junction - only gets 3 (SWT, Southern & London Overground).

Peterborough has five - Hull Trains do not call.
No-one mentioned Crewe? Seven: VWC, AXC, ATW, LM, EMT, Northern, Scotrail (Sleepers).

I have seen a GC train stop at Peterborough although the ECML was in a big mess due to the wires so it could have been a one off thing. So sadly Peterborough slips to only 5.
I think as Matt said, Crewe is the reining champ
