Guess the Station...

Cancel post see below guess.

How about Windsor EC?

I can't think where else in that area has royal connections, so maybe it's elsewhere...

Bognor Regis?

 

[Ivo]

Bognor Regis?

****

Why didn't I think of that? Mesa tinkin' dis be right.

 

[Matt Taylor]

Bognor is right, everyone seemed obsessed with SWT on that one!

Now finding a photo.

Sorry Matt - that stood out from a random google search I was doing earlier in the year for some reason or another!

Here you go!

Accurate as of TP's "Now finding a photo" post [Post #11098], so not including this one or the one before.

 

[OxtedL]

Crikey! I'm trying to keep this thread below 50% of total posts, and that is a bit too close for me...

Avoncliff?

EDIT: see below for graph of Ivo's data. Haven't had a good graph opportunity for a while, so couldn't resist, sorry!

 

[transportphoto]

Not Avoncliff

Spare a thought for Track Basher. For every 19 posts he makes, 18 are in this thread!

Utterly wild guess; Saxmundham.

Ok - I call this a bit hard - so am going to jump straight in with a clue...

Right TOC - Wrong Station

If this is not gone by 1515 could somebody please volunteer to take over as I am going out. I will PM answer. Thanks

 

[Ivo]

I will if need be; give us until 1510 to call it.

Hoveton & Wroxham

Is this the posting graph? According to that, I've got under 500 posts.

 

[Ivo]

D'oh

111 different people have posted in this thread! 111! (Copy and paste the data into MS Word and run a Word Count; will come up as 111 lines.)

OK; last guess. You can send it after this one. Let's try Bures.

That data relates to this thread only!

 

[HST Power]

Ah, it's for the thread. I'd really like to see a graph for posting frequency on the forum as a whole.

 

[OxtedL]

West Runton

Sorry for confusion HST. I would do one for the whole forum, but would take too long. For one thing, I have to go through and remove spaces from everyone's usernames, and then remove everyone below a threshold (Maybe 80 posts?). Then I have to wait for my computer to cooperate and then find a way to display everyone's names.

Give me the data in a .txt file and I might do it though .


Looking at the graph above, it is just like an earnings graph - top 5% dominate maybe 95% of posts.

 

[Ivo]

Ah, it's for the thread. I'd really like to see a graph for posting frequency on the forum as a whole.

If you want a graph for each person's individual posting rates you're on your own! There are over 9,000 pieces of data required. Now, if you just want total posts, which would ignore posting rates, it would be much easier...

No sorry - not Bures.

Now about to send PM to Ivo

EDIT
Or West Runton

PM Sent - Ivo knows answer.

 

[Ivo]

I so should have had that :roll: Not as though I've ever been through there... although I've covered 90% of the NXEA network so that isn't saying much. And if anyone says Southend Victoria (or Southend Airport!), I shall go on eBay and purchase a shotgun.

 

[OxtedL]

Lingwood? Norfolk even?

 

[Ivo]

Lingwood: Nope.

 

[transportphoto]

Norfolk even?

Yes - its in Norfolk

[Ivo]

How should I go about giving clues?

Note the shameless plug in TP's sig

 

[HST Power]

How hard can it be? I'll book a week off work and get started!

 

[ainsworth74]

Well you can organise the members list by post count so that should help you a bit! Still good luck and see you in a week with the results.

I've sent you the full Image - be inventive, reveal more (etc...) but only if it is really hard - there's already two clues on the floor.
