Guess the Station...

[Peter Mugridge]

Boston, Lincolnshire.

Taken from the Grantham bound platform looking towards Skegness.

Open floor.

Drat. Beaten by minutes

 

[Peter Mugridge]

It was an easy one; I went on a VIP visit to the BBMF at Coningsby only four weeks ago, so....

 

[Lad Brookes]

In that case...

 

[Track Basher]

Pilning

 

[Lad Brookes]

Pilning it is.

(Hadn't spotted the Severn Bridge in the middle of the picture when I posted it!)

 

[clagmonster]

I agree on Boston.

Pilning and Ulleskelf are both required shacks, both of which I intend to manage to do without an inordinate fester.

 

[Lad Brookes]

I did Pilning on Saturday morning by walking from Severn Beach.

Quick dash required but doable without running.
First SO arrival at SVB is 07:53, and you need to get to PIL for the 08:32 departure.
My train got to SVB at 07:50, so had 42 minutes to make the journey. Made it with 4 mins to spare- really didn't fancy missing that one!

(and I wasn't the only passenger boarding)

Bit behind the times there :P

And Ulleskelf has an option of a +10 late in the evening (services between Leeds/York IIRC)

The +35 I had was a little long, though given the decent weather and interest of passing services (freight, ECS charter and TPE/XC/NT passenger) it passed by reasonably quickly

Until you have spent 28 consecutive minutes in Upper Warlingham station you have not lived.

 

[Track Basher]

I had not spotted the new severn bridge.

Try this.

 

[clagmonster]

It is almost certainly inner suburban. The tail lights are lit, suggesting it has just terminated. I'll go for the obvious first: Dartford?

 

[Track Basher]

Obvious is good.

Correct answer.

 

[clagmonster]

This could be an interesting one. I have no idea whether it will be got straight away or whether I will need to reveal more.

 

[Track Basher]

Dundee

 

[Matt Taylor]

Sheffield.

 

[Crossover]

Perth?

Or is that to say that because I haven't, I am living? :P (I have passed through the station but didn't have to alight there )

 

[185]

Haha Matts right. Deffo.

 

[Matt Taylor]

If I am it will have to be an open floor as I'm to spend the day on some Desiros.

 

[Lampshade]

Hmm, the architecture suggests ELR rather than Midland.

In fact, I'll go completely in the other direction and say Penzance?

 

[D6975]

Not Penzance, Matts right, it's platform 8 at Sheffield.

 

[clagmonster]

It is indeed platform 8 at Sheffield. I appologise that I didn't confirm this last night, I was far too tired to come back on as planned.

Since its open floor, here is a picture

Clue - Taken at Speed (at least 60 - 70 mph - shocked that it actually came out though!) (the camera didn't go past the window frame - just in case)

 

[clagmonster]

Dunbar?

 

[atomicdanny]

yep, your go

 

[clagmonster]

Next up:

 

[Lampshade]

Humphrey Park?

 

[OxtedL]

Horsforth?

 

[D6975]

Looks a bit like Knottingley to me, but it isn't, so could be somewhere else in the same PTE area.
Those angled fencing slats are all over W Yorkshire.
