Oh ecky thump.

I'm being totally thick here, do you mean we go North after passing through Penistone?

I think the right answer after Sprotbrough (SYR) is Doncaster St James Bridge. I would have liked to have claimed Doncaster Cherry Tree Lane on the way but I suspect I would be infringing Rule 4 yet again!

Actually, Doncaster Cherry Tree Lane is a valid posting and has been used the last time that a joumey passed this was

You are also correct to say that Doncaster St James' Bridge was the final closed station on this journey, but came after Doncaster Cherry Tree Lane which was the next closed station after we passed through Sprotborough

Pickburn & Brodsworth?

That station was situated on the Hull, Barnsley and West Riding Junction Railway branch line from Wrangbrook Junction to Conisbrough, via Denaby
