Guess the Station...

[Matt Taylor]

Please do.

 

[Track Basher]

I will get in trouble again.

Sorry Mojo we think we have it but happy to go back if we are wrong.

Bit tricky this one.

 

[MidnightFlyer]

Floor was open from last night (Clifton Down)

Love that bloke's hat!

 

[Matt Taylor]

Newport (Gwent)

 

[MCR247]

Derby?

 

[Track Basher]

There is is an explanation for that, he is more than likely from Lancashire or Cumbria. When the picture has been identified I will eladorate. 15 going on 60 I think.

Neither of those, I will give some clues in a while.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Laptop won't open the picture, someone ****ing my connection around!

Gonna guess at Crewe from the layout of only what I can see on the thumbnail (which isn't much)

 

[Track Basher]

It is not Crewe.

I have just looked at PM and you cannot attach a file.

I will try uploading again.

If you want to PM me an email address I will email it to you if you wish.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

It's cool, I can see it now

How about Bristol Temple Meads?

 

[Track Basher]

Not Bristol.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Wolves?

 

[Track Basher]

Not Wolves

Overhead wires?

This appears to have completely stumped you. No one has been even close yet.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Could have been pre-electirfication? Grabbing at straws to defend myself there ain't I?

Okay, moving on................

Newton abbot?

You are clutching at straws. Electrification 1960s. RFD livery 1980s.

I would just stop.

Time for a clue: No one has yet been in the right country.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

That would kinda imply Scotland?

Therefore I am thinking Dundee?

 

[NXEA!]

Cardiff Central?

 

[Track Basher]

We have had England and Wales so yes Scotland is looking good.

Not Dundee.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Not Dundee so Aberdeen?

 

[Track Basher]

Not Dundee so Aberdeen?

Correct answer.

The story behind this it was a BR run excursion from Lancaster to Aberdeen. The two in the front coach are more than likely residents of either Lancaster or Cumbria and are wearing suitable northern atire for a trip to Scotland.

As you can work out it was a typical day in June in Aberdeen. Pouring down.

The train was worked by 86413 to Mossend Yard and no 47 was sent to work the train so 37113 worked to Dundee via Forth and Tay bridges interesting with 12 Mk1s. The 37 was swapped at Dundee for 47614 which prompty failed in Aberdeen so 47231 was provided back to Mossend Yard for 86413 again.

Over to IPT.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Brilliant and now for my picture and someone knows why I have gone this far

 

[Track Basher]

Crewe. Platform 6?

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Right, that is me done for the night!

Yep, Crewe P6!

 

[Track Basher]

My extensive knowledge of stairs strikes again.

This is getting very sad.

Next one up.

I will have to go and edit some more as this is the last one in my current stock.
