Guess the Station...

[Track Basher]

That's Sudbury! Open floor. I'm gonna look like an idiot if I'm wrong.

You are not but Clagmonster is!

Correct answer

 

[IanPooleTrains]

I saw open floor so here goes:

 

[Track Basher]

Ealing Broadway

 

[IanPooleTrains]

He also has a good knowledge of FGW as well

Yep, Ealing Broadway is the right answer

 

[Track Basher]

Thank you.

[Ivo]

Aww, come on; I've had a few hours off (reading various F1-related articles), and you go and do two stations I would have called instantly. Nice

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Make it three Ivo, that looks like Didcot Parkway

 

[Track Basher]

It may look like it but it isn't.

Prediction number 1: Sunday Vettel 75 points.

 

[Ivo]

Funny how I wouldn't have called Clacton though (the dump that it is), and yet would have called Sudbury in spite of having never been there... :roll:

On the other hand, I am of the opinion that I would not call this instantly (Didcot was not my assumption here), although I do feel that I recognise this place. My first guess shall be Southall.

Predicton number 2, you talk absolute nonsense!

Let's try Slough

Usless fact of the day, I have now done 3 pictures of Clacton all different views. All with strange traction 37 & 303, 50 and 47.

Prediction number 3; TB could well be right (not since 2008 has a non-RB driver won at China). I've made two duff calls so far this year, and am likely to make it three...

However, I shall agree on Seb this time.

 

[Track Basher]

We will see and that is not because I want him to win. Thier car is so much better than anyone elses and no one will get an upgrade until they get back to Europe.

Not Slough.

Prediction number 4: I think it's your turn for a photo

Didn't Jenson win there last year and the year before?

No. China was the only place to buck JB's seven-in-a-row attempt in 2009, with Vettel leading a Red Bull one-two in heavy (but not Malaysia-esque) rain. As for 2010, I can't remember how well he did (I'll check).

No; I stand corrected. Sorry. JB got his own back on Vettel and Webber by leading team-mate Lewis to the chequered flag. Indeed, Vettel and Webber could only manage 6th and 8th respectively.

 

[Track Basher]

He has to get it right first

 

[Ivo]

So presumably Southall isn't?

I am sure I recognise this station, but as stated would not get it instantly.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

A-ha, for the first time in a long time, IPT speaks......absolute sense

Taunton?

 

[Track Basher]

No not Southall or Taunton

 

[NXEA!]

Severn Tunnel Junction?

 

[Track Basher]

Not STJ either

 

[Ivo]

Where the hell is it...!!!!! I'm sure I recognise this one!

Will probably be mistaken in the end though :roll: Nope. I do. Too well. Grrr!!!

Swansea

 

[Track Basher]

Not Swansea.

 

[Matt Taylor]

There is a level crossing at the end of the platform that nobody seems to have noticed yet.

Port Talbot Parkway.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Hmmmm, it looks almost Great Westerny but looks can be decieving

That hill in the background might be a bit of a clue so I'm gonna say.......

Newton Abbot

 

[NXEA!]

Theale?

 

[Ivo]

There is a level crossing at the end of the platform that nobody seems to have noticed yet.

Port Talbot Parkway.

I had, and that's part of the problem! Where has four track level crossings?

Port Talbot Parkway.

Is that the noise on Ivo banging his head on the table? Having passed through the station at least 4 times this year that I know of.

Port Talbot is the correct answer.

 

[Ivo]

Is that the noise on Ivo banging his head on the radiator? Having passed through the station at least 4 times this year that I know of.

Port Talbot is the correct answer.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For the love of...!

 

[Matt Taylor]

The hill in the background was quite a clue too!

Open floor.
