Guess the Station...

[OxtedL]

I don't think it's Hove. It's narrow enough to be Pulborough.

I think we're on the South Central division. There is a back platform with a further back road. Said platform road appears to besignalled for bidirectional working. It is electrified. The sign on the subway points to only one other platform, so we have a 3 platformed station with a 2 sided island and a singleton platform. I reckon it's Hove.

It is South Central, but despite appearances in the photo, this is a two platform station. Hence Hove is incorrect.

It's not Pulborough. We're not in any part of Sussex, in fact.

 

[Matt Taylor]

Wallington.

 

[paulravuslante]

Wallington is the correct answer.

 

[Matt Taylor]

This shouldn't be too difficult.

 

[Lad Brookes]

Bedford Midland?

 

[Matt Taylor]

Correct, I said it was easy.

 

[Lad Brookes]

Floor open.

 

[OxtedL]

Late night one.

 

[paulravuslante]

Looks Scottish to me. Hillfoot?

 

[OxtedL]

On the correct side of Glasgow.

 

[paulravuslante]

That type of footbridge seems popular in Glasgow

Drumchapel?

 

[clagmonster]

Dalmuir?

 

[OxtedL]

I haven't done any intensive Geographical surveys here, but you're not much closer there. Either of you.

Jordanhill

 

[clagmonster]

Jordanhill?

What are the odds, we've both had the same guess. I'll change to Hyndland.

 

[OxtedL]

Jordanhill it is. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1236944

Bonus points if you can say why it's notable.

 

[clagmonster]

Would it be the aniversary (I know I've spelt it incorrectly, it's the time of night) of the inaguration of electric services on said line?

 

[OxtedL]

I don't know. (Was that last year?) I was more going for something special - and completely not really special at the same time - about Jordanhill station itself.

Wiki says there was a derailment there in the 80s. Is it that?

 

[clagmonster]

Electric services started a long time ago, we're probably talking 1950s.

I don't really have a clue, but to give something plausible, is it the 500th different station to be used on the thread.

Not a bad guess, but not the one.

Llangadog?

 

[paulravuslante]

Llangadog?

You've got four letters right in your answer there. Still not right...

 

[clagmonster]

Llanwrda?

 

[OxtedL]

Yorton?

No-one's got the right answer re Jordanhill, but Wikipedia is the place to look.

 

[paulravuslante]

Llanwrda?

Yorton?

Nope. Claggy is nearer in more ways than one

Another Jordanhill wikifact: 25th busiest on the Argyle Line in 2003.

 

[OxtedL]

I'm now going with Bucknell.

You're looking in the wrong place.

 

[clagmonster]

Llandybie?

Last guess for tonight, open floor if I have got lucky.

 

[OxtedL]

Next I'm going with Llangynllo. Just to warn you.

Given as I've just twigged they all have identical shelters, Llanbister Road?
