    Kincardine sounds very convincing. It did once have a footbridge.

    Trivia: What are the quirkiest railway stations in Britain?

    Hah! The joke would work better if "Kinneil" was spelt the way you wrote it.

    Yeah, I don't think it's Uphall. The footbridge isn't an exact match. It's possibly a different station on the same line.
