For context: medium sized European city will have anything from 12-30 platforms - and often several main train stations and several dozen local ones in the city. E.g. Brussels, Paris or Berlin have several huge stations.

12-30 is a bit overkill.

A terminus needs at least double the amount of platforms to sustain the throughput of a regular station.
