Station Odd One Out

[gnolife]

Ipswich only one not in essex?
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Pitsea doesn't have services to any of the other ones.

Pitsea has service to Upminster, travelling with c2c

 

[Trainfan344]

Wickford has no direct services to the others, only one with a direct service to an airport.

 

[Ivo]

Sorry guys - been out all day. Still waiting on one for Pitsea, which for the record is the answer I wanted...

Ipswich only one not in essex?

*cough* Upminster *cough*

 

[Trainfan344]

Pitsea only one with a level crossing at the end of the station.

 

[Ivo]

Far from ideal, but it'll do. The floor is Eagle's if he wants it.

The one I wanted was far more inventive and obscure - it has an unnumbered and unmarked, but theoretically usable, bay platform (albeit with no OHLE).

 

[Trainfan344]

Since Eagle hasn't taken the floor within the last 36 hours, i will take the floor if it is alright with everyone.

Erdington, Glasgow, Canterbury West, Penzance Something to do with power.

Glasgow? That's no use at all!

I would assume that Penzance is the answer because of its lack of AC/DC. Open Floor if correct.

Indeed

Hope Derbys, Berney Arms, Gainsborough Central, Burnage. Something about weekends.

 

[Trainfan344]

Burnage Only one which does not see an improved service on Saturday's

 

[gnolife]

Yup..

 

[Trainfan344]

Leeds Manchester Piccadilly Birmingham New Street Edinburgh Waverly Something to do with speed.

 

[Robinson]

Leeds is the only station not to see 125mph tilting trains which actually use the tilting equipment?

 

[Trainfan344]

Nope, when talking about speed, it's an increase in speed in the future.

Open Floor The awnser i was looking for was Leeds Because it is the only one not planned to see benefits immediately from HS2

 

[gnolife]

Bristol TM, Smallbrook Jn, Dingwall, Loch Eil OB.
Something about the trains calling.

 

[ls2270]

Smallbrook Junction has electric and steam trains, the others all diesels.

 

[gnolife]

Smallbrook Junction has electric and steam trains, the others all diesels.

Loch Eil OB has summer steam services.

 

[ls2270]

Smallbrook Junction as it's the only one not to be served by trains operated by First Group?

 

[gnolife]

I'll tell you now that Smallbrook is not the odd one out that I had in mind

 

[Robinson]

Bristol Temple Meads is the only one to routinely see post-privatisation stock in service? In fact the only one to routinely see more than 1 class of train in regular service? (Dingwall is served by 158s, Loch Eil Outward Bound by 156s and Smallbrook Junction by the 1938 LUL stock...)

 

[gnolife]

Is exactly what I was after. I threw Smallbrook in as a red herring.

 

[Robinson]

Glasgow Central, Smethwick Galton Bridge, Tamworth, Retford. Something to do with infrastructure.

 

[gnolife]

Glasgow Central is the only one with one set of through lines, the rest have two?

 

[Robinson]

Glasgow Central is the only one with one set of through lines, the rest have two?

Not quite what I was looking for.

 

[gnolife]

Glasgow is the only one where both levels are electrified?

 

[Buttsy]

Retford is the only one rebuilt in the 20th century to allow for a low level station?

 

[Robinson]

Glasgow is the only one where both levels are electrified?

Exactly right.

 

[gnolife]

Salisbury, Stockport, Carlisle Guildford, Cardiff Central. Something about the routes at this station.

 

[Robinson]

Salisbury is the only one not to have services which cross an international border?
