Ian: Why??

Willington?

Indeed, I was hoping you weren't around ;)

I think a lot of Voyagers were unbranded in the Nov 07-Spring 08 period in between VTXC and AXC franchises, and Sprinters work ATW stuff from Birmingham-Abersystwyth/Chester

It looks like Willington

MCR247: Because, okay the photo was taken in 2008, but that super sprinter must have done a route from....i dunno, Birmingham - Shrewsbury or something like that.

But just found out that that super sprinter was doing the shuttle between Walsall and Wolves so that makes sense!

Try this then (easy IMHO).

Part of the station is just visible on the extreme left if you strain yr eyes hard enough! No matter, it's hardly an unfamiliar scene.

Only just though, that's the trouble with open floors.

York is correct for D200 on the Whistler Finale tour.

I have just realised something else. There is no station in the 40 picture. None of it is visible. You must have been stood virtually next to me by the way as I have a very similar picture. A very sad day indeed.

I think it is 12CSVT to play. I did guess the other one but it was the second post and probably suspect in eligability.

Sorry went to bed early last night, still trying to shift a cold.

And I was thinking should be Track Basher's turn. To save any arguments I'll leave the floor open.

I think you can just make out the top of the overall roof at the end of 8A. At least I can in the original snap...........

I took another photo of 40122 heading under Holgate Bridge. There's a lad of about 15 or 16 in it holding a camera and wearing a white T-shirt and dark blue jacket? It it you? Unfortunately I haven't scanned that shot and can't as I don't have a scanner (have to take batches of shots to my sister's house in York when I go there and gradually digitise the collection).
