[A Challenge]

Could I remind people of Rule 3.1:
3.1 The Turn Player selects any station under National Rail jurisdiction for use in his round. He may not select any station that is not in one of England, Scotland or Wales, any station on any other system (including other railway systems in England, Scotland and Wales), or any station that has closed to passengers.

Where does that rule state?

Where does that rule state?

You have to select a National Rail station
Underground stations are not National Rail stations and can only be used if they have an interchange with a National Rail station, for example: you could not have Regents Park as it is only an Underground station but you could have Balham as it is also served by a National Rail operator.
