Georgemas Junction ? (but I don't know that it sees Turbostars)

 

[DasLunatic]

That's the one.

 

[Quakkerillo]

Since when does that see turbostars, let alone regular ones?

 

[FQ]

Since when does that see turbostars, let alone regular ones?

Agreed. The only traction you get up there on passenger work is 158s!

Your Floor.

 

[Gathursty]

Hahaha I wasn't expecting that!

Hmmm...

Clue 1: I am a rural station.

 

[DasLunatic]

Define 'rural'.

 

[Gathursty]

Define 'rural'.

'rural' - I am in a sparsely populated area, at least 5 miles from a large town.

 

[DasLunatic]

Gotcha.

Does Bures fit?

 

[Gathursty]

Afraid it's not Bures. Will give another clue later on.

 

[DasLunatic]

How about Fauldhouse?

 

[PermitToTravel]

You didn't define "large town"

In seriousness, Beaulieu Rd?

 

[Gathursty]

Wrong so far so...

Clue 2: I have two platforms.

 

[martinsh]

Edale ?

Not Edale and not Gathurst this time. :P
