Central station in Sydney has 25 platforms.

Platforms 1 - 3 (Countrylink)
Platforms 4 - 15 (CityRail Interurban)
Platforms 16 - 25 (CityRail Suburban)

Platforms 1 - 15 are terminating roads and are also known as Sydney
Terminal.

Platforms 24 and 25 are underground (Eastern suburbs line).
I beleive there are also a couple of disused underground platforms at
Central (26 & 27???) associated with the ESR?  Can anyone shed any light
on this?

Other Sydney CBD stations (No. of platforms):

Town Hall (6),
Wynyard (4),
Circular Quay, St James, Museum, Martim Place (2 each),
