Guess the Station...

[gnolife]

Its not Romford.

 

[TheEdge]

Illford.

(Surely we are just going to have to guess every station on GA lines south of Manningtree and north of Stratford?)

 

[Track Basher]

Norwich.

 

[gnolife]

Not Ilford, and not Norwich. I've left a rather large red herring in the picture.

 

[TheEdge]

Now you've said that the little bit of tiling in the picture makes me think Lowestoft

 

[Buttsy]

Chelmsford

 

[LE Greys]

Ipswich

 

[gnolife]

Now you've said that the little bit of tiling in the picture makes me think Lowestoft

It probably makes you think Lowestoft because it is Lowestoft

 

[TheEdge]

Excellent. Let try this probably too easy one

 

[Matt Taylor]

Is that Hereford?

 

[TheEdge]

Yes it is, thought it was too easy

 

[Matt Taylor]

Open floor chaps.

 

[Buttsy]

This should be straightforward

 

[Crossover]

Coventry?

 

[Buttsy]

No, sorry

 

[OxtedL]

Worcester Foregate Street?

 

[D6975]

Gloucester

 

[Buttsy]

Neither of those, but you're generally in the right area as far as the 'Big Four' go.
Also, the picture is not current...

 

[D6975]

Is it Plymouth before they blocked off the first two through roads?

 

[Track Basher]

Whitland

 

[chrisdoward]

Oxford? Open floor if correct.

 

[Buttsy]

Oxford? Open floor if correct.

Correct

 

[LE Greys]

Deleted

 

[Buttsy]

Hmm, through lines, IC MkIId's and a 210. I'm going for Oxford (assuming you've cunningly cut out any footbridges).

Chrisdoward beat you to it I'm afraid...

The footbridge didn't exist in the 1980s...

 

[chrisdoward]

Oxford is a place I know well from before it had a footbridge, as well as after.

How about this to be going along with:

 

[clagmonster]

A Clacton unit alongside a mark 2 based unit (I suspect a 310 but possibly a 312). Given the 310/2 is in blue and grey I suspect the 309 is on home ground. Assuming the 310/312 is platformed there is one centre road. I shall start with the obvious. Colchester North?

 

[chrisdoward]

To which the answer is no, although the station in question does have a centre road.

 

[clagmonster]

They didn't get there that often, but I shall try Ipswich.

 

[chrisdoward]

Too far east, Clagmonster.

 

[richard1976]

Stratford (London)

floor open if correct
