Guess the Station...

[Track Basher]

Sorry out getting more material, hadn't realised I had got it right.

Stood in a sunny field waiting for trains to come. (60013)

The floor is open.

Will however provide material this evening.

 

[DavidL]

As it's an open floor, resuming my 156 series...
Shouldn't last long, but at least it plugs the gap

 

[4SRKT]

Carlisle

 

[Matt Taylor]

That didn't last long enough.

 

[MCR247]

Newcastle?

 

[4SRKT]

Open floor as I'm still out of images.

 

[DavidL]

As if it needed confirming - 4SRKT is right.
It was Carlisle!

 

[4SRKT]

Try this: I've just found it.

 

[richard1976]

Belfast Great Victoria Street

 

[4SRKT]

Correct.

 

[richard1976]

floors open

 

[4SRKT]

Next up (and pretty easy).

 

[northernrail]

A dead end station, with services to Waverly, that ends in rm.
I know il kick myself when i find out the answer

 

[richard1976]

Stirling

 

[Matt Taylor]

I think the 'rm' is the word 'platform'.

 

[northernrail]

Oh yea, that makes sence now

 

[4SRKT]

Not Stirling.

 

[Ivo]

He's got it! Longniddry!

:roll:

4SRKT: Nice of you to drop by How does Inverness sound?

 

[4SRKT]

Nice to be back. Inverness sounds wrong I'm afraid.

 

[Captain Chaos]

Is it Perth?

 

[4SRKT]

It is Perth.

 

[Ivo]

To my first answer (which I backed off on because I wasn't sure whether it had terminal platforms or not) then: Dundee.

For the record, only four stations managed by FSRE have "rm" in their name: Carmyle, both Dunfermline stations, and Hairmyres. (If you want to know how I've found out, I've saved the Station Usage data as two different files since 07/08; leaving one as it is, and applying various sorts to the other. Specifically, I have used: A-Z [default], TOC, Area, Usage, Change, Interchange, [Usage] and [Interchange] combined; in that order.)

Wrong, and after the whistle!

 

[Captain Chaos]

It is Perth.

Floor open then. (Really must get some photos sorted).

 

[4SRKT]

OK, try this (revenge for Ivo's photos in the dark! )

 

[Ivo]

Nice try

Unfortunately, for reasons I refuse to disclose, there are only three genuinely possible answers here. I shall run through them in order of likelihood, starting with the most likely. Leeds

And anyway, my Milford Haven shot did have that "Stop" sign, which should have been a big help. Couple that with my history of Welsh shots at the time...

 

[4SRKT]

Leeds is correct. 06:34 to St Pancras on 17th February. What's all the undisclosable reasons business?

 

[Ivo]

If you look carefully, you can make out "Platform 12" on the indicator. The only EMT stations that it would fit are Leeds, York and, possibly, Piccadilly (not sure about the timing of Rio in relation to the EMT franchise, so it may have been only two!). I didn't disclose it to try to hide the reason from everyone else to make it easier for me Naughty tactics, I know, but ultimately unnecessary.

And speaking of EMT, guess the TOC here? This, like my Grays pic, is one that I have edited previously and abandoned. (Hence the "2A" code.)

Hucknall

Mansfiled Woodhouse

 

[Matt Taylor]

Gotta be Hucknall, the platform bricking gives it away as a 'Robin Hood Line' station.
