That is better than winning the lottery.

Edge Hill

 

[Matt Taylor]

Looks like Edge Hill to me too.

 

[Anon Mouse]

deffo Edge Hill

 

[142094]

It is Edge Hill. Thought I'd put an easy one on as I'll be off to bed shortly.

Although I did have another picture of Dunston and Heworth...

Next one:

 

[Matt Taylor]

Holyhead?

 

[paulravuslante]

Caerdydd Canolog

 

[Track Basher]

Caerdydd Canolog

Correct answer.

 

[paulravuslante]

I have a photo from the web, but I have a kind of deja-vue that it might have been on here before. I can't find that it has appeared here before, but I haven't exactly trawled through the thread to see if it definately has. If it hasn't appeared before it might be a rather difficult one.

Maybe I should just let Ivo post his offering.

 

[Ivo]

You mean my one that will probably last about 30 seconds, courtesy of a certain man from Llanelli (and I don't mean Greenback either!)?

 

[Matt Taylor]

Whitland

 

[Anon Mouse]

Llandudno Junction?

 

[Ivo]

I stand corrected. It didn't go first guess.

Or second, for that matter.

 

[Anon Mouse]

Pembroke Dock?

 

[Track Basher]

Close but no cigar folks.

I would have a go at Carmarthen (again)

 

[Ivo]

I would have a go at Carmarthen (again)

What do you mean "again"? I haven't done it before

Like I said though, the Llanelli man would ruin it.

 

[Track Basher]

I an not from Llanelli. Try not to go there it is a dump.

Neath is my nearest station.

I am sure Carmarthen has been in here at least 5 times. I don't think I used the picture of Cardiff before.

Anyway next picture.

 

[Ivo]

I knew that you live near Swansea; I just went the wrong way. Sorry

I've said it before, and I'm going to say it again. Seamer

 

[142094]

I can tell you it isn't Seamer, which is an island platform.

 

[Anon Mouse]

Dovey Junction?

 

[Track Basher]

No problem, as I say I am an exiled northerner.

Not Seamer.

 

[Anon Mouse]

I can tell you it isn't Seamer, which is an island platform.

and does not have a brick shelter!

 

[Track Basher]

Not Dovey no houses there.

 

[Ivo]

I've only been through it once each way! And that was almost a year before I started photting!

Anyway, I think we can safely say that this train is either a 150 (watch it be something else! ) owing to the door location, the livery and the apparent exhaust pipe -thing visible to the right. But the Platform sign makes me think that this is not Welsh; however, I'll go for somewhere Welsh anyway. Somewhere like Ton Pentre, perhaps?

 

[Track Basher]

It is a Welsh 150 but not Ton Pentre

 

[Ivo]

A third consecutive Welsh station? Well I never...!

The signal is of the two-aspect variety, so that would surely disallow main lines and suggest somewhere with high-frequency stops and relatively low speed, which would make the Valleys more likely. With this in mind, I am going to go for Abercynon.

 

[paulravuslante]

Would it be on hire to FGW? I'm basing this on the assumption that the guy helping with the wheelchair user is wearing what seems to be a blue shirt. Unless the camera / PC have made the colour of the shirt look different......

But then again the station utilities don't look ATW either. I would be certain it was a FGW station but that bright red info board at the end of the platform is trying to make me think otherwise.

 

[Track Basher]

Not Abercynon

Just to clarify I said Welsh 150 not Welsh station.
