Newly updated rules effective from February 2013

Stations that were closed....but then re-opened either by a heritage railway or National Rail...are not allowed to be used on this quiz IF THEY WERE CONSTRUCTED ON THE SAME SITE..... Also any station either opened or closed by a a transport organisation such as the Manchester Metrolink system and the Tyne and Wear Metro is NOT allowed to be used on this quiz.


The above extract from the rules shown on the very first posting on this quiz shows that any former railway station now open and run by the Tyne and Wear Metro are not allowed on this quiz.

Hence Brockley Whins unfortunately cannot be allowed as an entry.

Fair enough... I hadn't realised about the ruling.

In that case i will suggest Monkwearmouth.
