Guess the Station...

[blackettstreet]

What was there in the photo to make it anything other than a guess? One bit of OHL and a small area of concrete platform with yellow line seem .... well less than unique.

the station sign reflected in the window - the name had to end in -rd!

You want to see some of the crap that was posted on here in the early days of this thread! A cracked bit of platform edging stone, a weed growing out of a crack, and most infamous of all, a single brick in the wall at Gravesend!

At one point (thanks to me) we required plant pot spotters

We need'd a photo, so here we are, hopefully reasonably easy

 

[ainsworth74]

Stratford International?

 

[transportphoto]

In one. (Correct)

 

[ainsworth74]

Oops I went to eat my tea (Chinese takeaway for those interested) and completely forgot about this thread

Open floor...

 

[Track Basher]

Try this.

Typical, I've just come off the computer as my mum wanted it; I had a decent pic to use (not mine). I'll have to beg her to get back on

EDIT: TB's beaten me to it.

 

[IanPooleTrains]

I was gonna say Cardiff Central but they don't have bushes next to the station.

However, I will say Bath Spa

 

[paulravuslante]

That's my old hometown of Swansea.

Open floor from me this time though as I won't be around much on Sunday.

 

[Track Basher]

Swansea it is.

 

[Class172]

I'll take the floor - here we go.

Don't bother looking at the reflections as you can only see the platform number

 

[Matt Taylor]

Bradford On Avon

 

[Track Basher]

Colwall

No and No

 

[Track Basher]

Great Malvrern

 

[Class172]

Great Malvrern

Nope

Here's a clue: it's heading towards Southampton Ctl.

 

[Matt Taylor]

Malvern Link

 

[Class172]

We have a winner

 

[Matt Taylor]

Try this one:

 

[Track Basher]

Soooooooooo Close.

Don't know where this one is.

Edenbridge.

 

[Crossover]

There is no other to way to put it but that track looks like a donkeys back leg!

As to where it is, not really sure at the moment, although short platforms and 3rd rail should be a help

 

[clagmonster]

The zoom exagerates the bumpiness of the track and quite probably the platform length, but I would still be surprised if it was more than 4 carriage lengths. By the size of the signal heads, we are probably is a 2 aspect signalled area, so out in the sticks a bit. Nutfield?

 

[Matt Taylor]

None right so far.

Clues soon.

 

[paulravuslante]

Brentford?

 

[Matt Taylor]

This station has no footbridge and is unstaffed.

It is not in the London zones.

 

[185]

Unstaffed? Ain't Merseyrail then.

 

[Matt Taylor]

Not Merseyside.

Bigger clue: Served by trains built in Germany, sometimes sees British trains, no freight.
