Guess the Station...

Penryn
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Where the blazes has IPT gone? He made enough fuss about nobody getting HST Power's photo, and now he's buggered off. Probably to the bus boys.

If you must know where IPT is, he is getting fares and comparing so that he and his brother can finally accomplish another mission and penetrate Scotland. Forgive me for doing that right now

Penryn is right though

Oh, and Stagecoach sucks!

 

[4SRKT]

Open floor and time for bed.

Oh, and Stagecoach sucks!

Guys, we have visitors! Honestly! :roll:

Continuing with a theme...

[Originally a cropped version of http://railwayherald.co.uk/images/photos/750/750191208.jpg appeared here. Should obviously mention that RH is awesome, particularly given as I borrow photo opportunities from there so often...]

 

[NXEA!]

Elmers End? (I think that's what its called ) Floor open if correct.

 

[OxtedL]

Indeed Elmers End: http://railwayherald.co.uk/imaging.centre/showimage.php?image=191208&gallery=X3

We did some good work tonight guys, lets hit 13500 by this time tomorrow .

 

[NXEA!]

[Popper]

Wimbledon.

 

[Popper]

That only lasted 8 minutes!

That is not a bad thing. I shall be making my third visit of the year shortly.

A good cheap way to get there is by sleeper. Often cheaper than VT.

 

[Matt Taylor]

Open floor!

 

[Track Basher]

I have been very quite this week so will post one.

 

[Chester025]

Bletchley?

 

[Track Basher]

Not Bletchley

 

[clagmonster]

I suspect it is a southernish West Coast, which I have pretty much avoided since the plastic replaced the 'leccys. With the modernisation, I imagine that many have changed a great deal.

Nuneaton?

 

[robschopper]

Definately Nuneaton

 

[Matt Taylor]

Watford Junction

 

[Track Basher]

It is indeed Nuneaton.

 

[clagmonster]

Is that what was (and maybe still is) the main down island platform at Nuneaton then? Anyway, another one for you.

 

[Track Basher]

That was the mainline platforms main Northbound side.

It is a very sad place now with most of the station buildings being boarded up.

Loughborough Jn

 

[clagmonster]

As I thought. I didn't know the buildings were disused though.

Not Loughborough Jn.

 

[Matt Taylor]

Tulse Hill

 

[HST Power]

Random guess, I'll try Balcombe.

 

[clagmonster]

Tulse Hill

Correct, the train was a diverted MML-Brighton service, running via Crystal Palace hence crossing over at that point.

 

[Track Basher]

Rochester

 

[Matt Taylor]

I'll bring this one back:

The clue that was given from the other night is that it is a First Group station.

 

[HST Power]

The clue that was given from the other night is that it is a First Group station.

A train station? It looks like one of those temples you see in China.

 

[clagmonster]

There is a penalty fare notice, thus placing it on either the Western, Great Northern of Thameslink. The red bollarkds look like they were once NSE. It is difficult to tell, but I don't see any sign of OHLE, which would place it on the Western or the Sutton loop. I would say the latter is more likely to be elevated, so West Sutton?

 

[Matt Taylor]

Your thinking is right, but it is not West Sutton.

 

[clagmonster]

Sutton Common?
