Darlington North Road is the first station on the Bishop Auckland branch and the original terminus of the Stockton and Darlington Rly. It is the the oldest continually open station in the world.

Right, that's me done for tonight. If any of you night owls think you've got it you can confirm with a link to the wiki-pic. If not, i'll be back bright and early.

I have to go out now and will not be back until much later, so I will put up the answer...but in a form that you cannot immediately read.

Here's what I propose.
ONE PERSON only will designate themselves as babysitter and decode this (there are plenty of options through google), and will look after this for me.

Hope it works OK (otherwise ad lib), here's the QR:

Just downloaded a QR reader for my iPhone. It works! I remember seeing those QR things a few years ago in Japan and wondered how they worked.

Blackrod is the answer by the way.

I get the impression you missed the bit about babysitting it...

Yes it's Blackrod.

You're back! Finally I'll get some real posting competition! :)

Right, if it's a dump, where better to start than with Stevenage?

Squeak?

As with Keynsham, that guess isn't exactly the best possible.

(N.B.: I would have said that many places are bigger dumps than Stevenage, even though Stevenage is a prime example! I would suggest Swindon is worse. And no, this is not Swindon.)

I don't know which Hackney you mean, presumably Central. Not that it matters because the word "Hackney" is not present in this station's name.

Ye shall have a PM before too long, regarding a certain simulator.

That wasn't what I meant...!

It relates to an Australian-made simulator that no-one else on here seems to play any more :roll:
