Sorry Ian, but that's bollocks. The photo on the website must be incorrectly captioned because that is definately Reading station.

Then that isn't my fault! If the picture caption said Exeter Central, that is what I am going to take and the download of the picture even said Exeter Central

No doubt though, we are going to have a debate on the fact and we'll now wait for 4SKRT to add his two pence

There is no need for a debate, it is Reading station, and to be quite honest, it's fairly obvious that it is!

Can I recommend that in future we use only pictures taken ourselves, so as to avoid this problem? The camera user should know where he is when taking the picture, so if he is wrong it is his responsibility!

As for the station...

I haven't a clue.

I would have put my life earnings (yet to start!) on that being Reading... the bridge, the layout... wasn't Exexter Central on both the Southern and GWR though?

Station currently - Rose Hill
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
... And how long has Exeter Central had a platform 8?

Actually on a technicality Reading is also GWR and Southern.

That is definately Reading. You may have my win :sad:

So... Who's turn is it? Is it MattE2010's turn now (Rose Hill does seem to be correct, and we may be waiting for a while...)?

UPDATE: I have uploaded everything from my camera and now have 14 pictures ready to go, the first of which will have a rather peculiar cropping technique...

I think it is Rose Hill but I will say St Annes on Sea just in case.

My vote is Matt Taylor carries on as there is no sign of Chapeltom and he was correct with Reading not me with Exeter Central.

Agreed. Assuming, of course, he is still around...! :p

BTW, it was Matt Taylor who called Reading. And only six minutes after it went up.

EDIT, relating to below: Sorry. My mistake. I thought you were referring to MattE2010, who will also be expecting a turn.

Someone please post a picture otherwise I will as no one seems to want the chair.

Give MattE2010 and Matt Taylor until 21:15 (30 minutes from now); first to put one up has the turn. If nothing is up by then, go for it.

I'm getting fed up of waiting too. I'm putting my dinner on.
