The "Name the Station" game

[Class15]

Thrice nope! Genuinely surprised that nobody got it in that one...


(1) This station is west of Dalston Kingsland
(2) This station is served by 2 TOCs
(3) There is no electrification here, or indeed anywhere in this ceremonial county...
(4) To head south, go north
(5) This station has 3 platforms, one being at right-angles to the others.

Liskeard surely?

 

[-Colly405-]

Liskeard surely?

Indeed!
I thought the 4th clue was the giveaway, especially as we'd already had Penzance and Truro as guesses!!

Over to you to run down Lodge Hill to Combe Junction quicker than the train!

Thank you!

Clue 1: this station is South of Thurso.

 

[-Colly405-]

Penzance? Lol

Was going to say Shotton but I think it has 4 platforms

 

[trainmania100]

Thank you!

Clue 1: this station is South of Thurso.

Haywards heath

 

[Class15]

Neither of those.

Since my first clue was such a non-giveaway, I’ll give another now.

Clue 2: this station is served by 1 TOC and a metro system.

 

[Purple Train]

Navigation Road?

 

[trainmania100]

Birkbeck, assuming tram link is a metro system

 

[Class15]

Not either of those.

Clue 3: this station has 2 platforms.

 

[Purple Train]

Bulwell?

 

[Class15]

Not Bulwell.

Clue 4: this station shares its name with two nearby track junctions. These junctions are both on different lines to the station in question and to each other.

 

[DM352]

Rotherham Central but .... think Trans Pennine serve limited in addition to Northern and the 2 platforms could be considered as 4 because of different heights for tram trains.

 

[TheGuy77]

Gunnersbury?

 

[Class15]

Neither.

Clue 5: one of the lines nearby used to have a station with the same name, however that station was renamed before the present station of that name opened.

 

[TheGuy77]

Neither.

Clue 6: one of the lines nearby used to have a station with the same name, however that station was renamed before the present station of that name opened.

Shepherd's Bush??

 

[Class15]

Shepherd's Bush??

Very warm. Not there though.

Clue 6: the “Metro” system I mentioned is the London Underground.

 

[TheGuy77]

Kew Gardens?

 

[Class15]

Not Kew Gardens.

 

[TheGuy77]

Harlesden?

 

[Class15]

Very, very close there. And that also partly passes the track junction test (at least one junction, though I don’t know of a second).

Clue 7 to surely wrap this up: one of the track junctions which shares a name with the mystery station is at the other end of the freight line diverging at Harlesden Junction.

 

[RDP]

Kensal Green?

 

[Class15]

Kensal Green?

That is indeed the one. There are junctions with Kensal Green in the name on both the Great Western and North London lines.

Your go!

 

[RDP]

Cheers.

Clue1: This station is not in London.

 

[ls2270]

Prescot?

 

[TheGuy77]

Alnmouth?

 

[trainmania100]

Seaford

 

[RDP]

Prescot?

Alnmouth?

Seaford

None of those.

Clue 2: It is served by one TOC.

 

[trainmania100]

Bishop stone
