How many railway termini does your nation's biggest city have, and which destinations do they serve?

I am increasingly convinced that Beeching's 'reforms' were an unofficial war against rural and provincial Britain. While London and the Southeast saw some cutbacks, they were far less badly-affected than the rest of the country. In fact, Wales was especially badly-affected - before the 60's, practically every town and village in South Wales had its own station, whereas now it is not even close. And then politicians complain when potential investors say they won't invest in Wales due to the poor transport and infrastructure!

The 1960s saw a general attempt at controlling the population by driving them into the cities. It's a process repeated all over Western Europe.

So it's Santa Apolonia for Porto, Barreiro for the Algarve, Rossio for Sintra and Cais do Sodre for Cascais?

In 2022, the Elizabeth Line opened across West and East London, meaning that Paddington now has links to East London and Essex, and conversely Liverpool Street does to West London and Berkshire. In addition, St Pancras now has direct Eurostar services to the Netherlands.
