Whats the highest number of routes originating at a single junction?
[3/99] Mathura is a junction with 7 routes originating from it: • BG line to Agra Cantt. (double, electrified) • BG line to Bharatpur (double, electrified) • Three BG lines towards Delhi that meet at Mathura outer; of these two continue towards Delhi and may be considered to be one route… • …while the third turns east to Alwar at Bhuteshwar (single, unelectrified). Bhuteshwar lies within Mathura signalling territory and is not a junction. • MG line to Achnera • MG line to Vrindavan • MG line to Hathras, Kasganj If we considered parallel MG and BG lines to be separate routes, Sabarmati would count as a 7-route junction (see below). Bathinda has 6 lines: • BG route to Delhi (via Jakhal) • BG route to Sri Ganganagar • BG route to Ambala • BG route to Rewari (via Hissar) • BG route to Firozpur • BG route to Hanumangarh (Bathinda also has a bypass line.) If we considered parallel MG and BG lines as separate lines, then Guntakal would count as a 6-line junction (see below).
