Guess the Station...

[ls2270]

Shirley?

No, but it’s possible to get there by a direct train from this station.

 

[OxtedL]

Lye?

 

[ls2270]

Lye?

No, but again you can get a direct train from this station to Lye.

 

[OxtedL]

Think we're stuck on this one!

Okay here’s another clue. This station is now only served by West Midlands Railway, however a second TOC formerly served it.

 

[D6130]

Kidderminster?

 

[ls2270]

Kidderminster?

Yes well done ! I actually thought that one would go really quickly!

 

[D6130]

Yes well done ! I actually thought that one would go really quickly!

Thanks. Nothing suitable to hand, I'm afraid....so I shall have to declare 'open floor' again.

At which station did I recently capture 70 809?

 

[ls2270]

Banbury?

 

[chipbury]

Westbury?
Open floor if it’s correct as I’m out and about today.

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Banbury?

It is Banbury. I had hoped that the "Z" sign I left in might have misled people into ticking off routes served by the Caledonian Sleeper, which uses stop boards marked "ZZ"...

It was the Chiltern Railways liveried lampposts that put me on the right track and then I recognised the building behind!

Next up:

Parkstone?

 

[ls2270]

Parkstone?

It is indeed…all yours!

 

[OxtedL]

Apologies, this will need to be open floor

Thanks, let's try this one.

Wimbledon Chase?

 

[_toommm_]

Loughborough Junction?

 

[lxfe_mxtterz]

Loughborough Junction?

Not quite, because...

Wimbledon Chase?

...is correct! Well done.

 

[ls2270]

Thank you…knew it was one of the Sutton Loop stations and got a lucky guess! Moving on…

 

[Omnidekkalover]

Audley End?

 

[ls2270]
