Basingstoke?
Is the correct answer, well done.

The other clues were :

Clue 2 : 3 TOC's use this station.

Clue 3 : 4 of the 5 platforms are through lines.

Clue 4 : The through lines are all bi-directional.

Clue 5 : This station is 48 miles from London.

Seaforth and Litherland or could it be Sandhills. Both island platforms and only one TOC use it.

Morden South? (Blackfriars and St Pancras - which I’m not certain constitutes as a terminal)

On second thought, I realised Southern operates on this branch to Sutton (not right now due to COVID I presume)

Clue 5: the name of this station might imply that it’s not a very attractive place!
