Cryptic clues = station name

[Calthrop]

Paddington?

Interesting thought process; but no. (It's specifically panda-related, not re generic bears.)

 

[DaleCooper]

Chinnor?

 

[Calthrop]

Not Chinnor; it's National Rail, for what that's worth.

 

[D841 Roebuck]

Annan?

 

[Calthrop]

Annan?

No: but you're basically on the right track -- a particular panda's name, is part of the sought station name.

 

[J-2739]

Chinley? (as in the name, Chin Chin)

Open door if correct.

 

[Calthrop]

Chinley? (as in the name, Chin Chin)

No (this one a new member of panda-kind, to me; I had to Google !). One needs to look further back in history.

What about Lingfield.

There was a giant panda called Ling Ling who died in 2008.

We're looking considerably further back in time (I suspect that not for the first time, I might be taking a bit of unfair advantage from being an elderly gent). The animal concerned lived -- in Britain -- some three-quarters of a century ago. Its name was the same as that of an imperial dynasty in the species's country of origin.

Barming?

 

[Calthrop]

Barming?

Correct -- the bamboo forest is yours !

Haltwhistle?

Indeed it is, your turn...

[Calthrop]

Next station:
Travel an Apostle's path

Ryde St. John's Road?

 

[RJ21]

That'd be the one, over to you.

That'd be the one, over to you.

Thanks.

[cadoxton]

Romney Sands?

 

[Calthrop]

Romney Sands?

No. (Wrong gauge.)

 

[DaleCooper]

I understand the Campaign for Better Transport have listed the Skipton to Grassington line as one which they wish to see re-opened to passenger traffic. Their slogan could be "Odd, no Grassington."

 

[Calthrop]

Ingenious thinking; in the right direction words/letters-wise, but not geographically.

 

[Wilts Wanderer]

Thanks.
