I hope you like these short journeys. I have the next one in Wales to be of similar length....then we shall return to medium length journeys in future.

No great preference - though I do note there are lines (eg DN&S) that we appear to traverse every few weeks - in order to make longer journeys? Haven't done any analysis though just an impression

Browndown Halt

Elmore Halt...leaving the final closed station to be named

I do try to rotate the areas of the quiz as....England/Scotland/England/Wales/England

Some lines are useful "link lines", but I note what you say, but please remember that this last journey was number 111 in the series. Route familiarisation is not all that bad a thing, though.

Since this particular journey was not well received, I will name the final station as...

Lee-on-Solent
