Guess the Station...

[MikeWh]

OK, it's another picture from the same source. I've been to this station quite a few times but alas photography is not one of my hot hobbies. See what you reckon:

 

[MidnightFlyer]

South West Trains, two platforms, staffed...

Christchurch

Unless I'm very much mistaken, that's Wareham.

Yep. Note the (hopefully) soon to be re-used bay platform to the left. Over to you.

 

[thefab444]

Okay, try this:

 

[Lampshade]

I always dread thefab444's entries hock:

Okay, it's a 377 so that narrows it down to the whole Southern network (excl Oxted and Marshlink lines) so that's of little help, it's near some trees so that suggests it's outside London, perhaps on the West Coastway; Fishersgate?

 

[thefab444]

I'd better stop guessing!

Not Fishersgate. Remember, with all my entries, they are never as obvious as they first seem, but there's always a nice clue.

Now then, that 6 car stop has me stumped. I was originally going to say somewhere between Portsmouth - Southampton, but would there be a 6 car stop? What 3/6 car trains apart from 377/3s, which rarely work in multiple on that line, would warrant it?

I guess Swanwick anyway

Southampton Airport Parkway?

 

[Lampshade]

Southern don't stop there

 

[MCR247]

Southampton Airport parkway has a massive platform, and Southern do go through there though. The train may not have stopped.

Also, the question is, is where do Southern run to that 2x159s would run regularly? I can't think of anywhere

 

[thefab444]

It is indeed Southampton Airport Parkway.

Southern don't stop there

They didn't when that photo was taken (it was a diverted service), but they do now.

Over to James564.

 

[Ibex]

Unless Southeastern also stop there with a 465+466, or maybe 2x159 if SWT stop there.

Southern don't stop there

East Midlands Trains don't go to Inverkeithing but that still appeared here


Here's my entry:

Looks a bit like Watford Junction to be, but I haven't been there for about 4 years now.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

It;s defo Stafford because that looks like the Pretendolino on platform 3, possibly on the Euston - Preston service
