I shouldn't be allowed to enter these competitions if I've signed the route worked trains there in the past :)

Tis Heysham believe it or not, before most of it fell down

I can never see 142094s’ pictures when I’m at work :( It would have provided some light amusement in my lunch break if I could actually see it to have a guess. It’s exceptionally frustrating when guesses are moving towards northern locations that I might actually know! :-x If flymo isn’t right, any chance you could put up the image as an attachment to a post 142094?

I have found this problem as well if you are viewing on a mobile. It depends how the picture has been attached. What I have discovered is if you reply and repost (remembering to add at lease 5 characheters) the picture appears as link and you can then view it by clicking on the link.

I think this is T&W metro. Bending the rules slightly unless it is between Sunderland and Brockley Whins.

I will take a punt at Fellgate.

Well I never, so it does. Not much help in this instance unfortunately as it's one of photo sites that work has blocked (The software for the matrix programming I’m running through today is doing it’s thing tediously slowly today, hence the occasional loafing about on here during the inbetween times when the software has control), but nonetheless a very useful bit of advice for other times. Cheers Track Basher :)

My guess Tyne Dock on the T&W Metro

It is Tyne Dock.

Sorry to those who can't see the picture, it is fast for me to upload to somewhere like Photobucket than put the picture up as an attachment (also easier to edit).

There was a picture of a Northern 142 in Sheffield, complete with station sign. It was gone a minute or 2 later and replaced with the 150 in Blackpool. Sorry for any confusion.

Ah yes, no, what had happened was that I put the Sheffield picture up in accident because in my picture files, the Blackpool North picture and the Sheffield picture are next to each other so I put Sheffield up and not Blackpool North when I meant to put BPN up and not Sheffield

Right, plenty of chit-chat, but no pics since TB declared an open floor. So I'm calling the shots.

If you're wondering why its name is slightly different to the rest of mine, this is the third attempt I have made at this picture; the first two [100_0931-2 and 100_0931-2A] are still saved but never saw the light of day (or in this case, the thread).

Not sure on that one, but I spy red lamp posts and a signal with an associated ground position signal suggesting sidings ahead. The picture also appears to have been taken from a level crossing.

It was indeed taken from a level crossing. There is actually a train in the picture (you can see its shadow); there were line problems several miles "behind" me so it was stranded on the platform shown.

This station is a departure from most of mine of late; ATW have no presence here.

TB, this station is not Bath Spa. I will do one for my new local station eventually...
