That might annoy me almost as much as Xmas and Xings ........ and (Xtina) for a start that has an extra t in it....

Don't worry, it annoys me too. But it's the closest you can get to an X station! Was just suggesting.

Na, not all that difficult. There was a time in Victoria that every town of more than 500 people had access to train station, but now many of the lines are closed. I live near a railway and not too far from the Melbourne electrified suburban network.
