You were thinking in the absolute right way, however. HINT.

Someone PLEASE take the hint... :D

I'm going to keep trying to apply pressure here, I know at least 5 people have now looked at the picture. It is unbelievable that no-one has even had a punt at it yet! :o
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
No? In that case I'll continue this conversation with myself. :D I note for instance, that once this one has been solved, there only appear to be 12 more stations left to appear from the Cross-City Line... :roll:
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
And only three of those stations will also be in the southern half of the line. Although admittedly they won't be in the single track branch at the end, so the comparison only stretches so far... :lol: :roll:
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Honestly, I think I'm starting to see why posting levels have dropped off a bit... ;)
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
This could go on for hours.
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Well, while I continue to wait for any kind of intervention, I've prepared a list of the other 12 I can't find on the census. So, lets have all of them clear by 23:59 on Tuesday please... :D

I don't need help to look mad :D. That said, can someone please guess this new one tonight so I'm not tempted to give an encore. Worst case scenario you have a 1 in 12 chance, which is much better than normal.

Ach, sorry sellis. I feel ultra guilty as well, not having any photos of the line whatsoever and thus depending on the internet.

That said, lets reduce the pool further with this <D:

Hmm. Well, excuse my madness all round, but tonight has felt a bit like thrashing my head against a brick wall. To keep this thread healthy, people need to be more motivated to make guesses, rather than leaving me to increase my posting levels still further. Yes, that station does have three platforms. New people guessing is always good as well, breathes some life into things.

And to make sure you read that, I have deposited a really obvious clue in the middle. :D

To round off my number crunching, congratulations everyone, highest posting level in 5 weeks, and third highest across more than two months...

Bit of a rant there OxL :P

Looks vaguely Scottish but I may be wrong. We appear to have moved from the Cross City Line...(this could backfire quite badly, I am aware :P)

One fnal thing, this thread doesn't increase post count :P

You trying to set a new 'quadruple post prevention system?' :p

I think it's four oaks as well.

OK, we are still on the Cross City...well I never

Also, does that have 3 platforms? Just looks like the single island to me...

Not able to take the open floor at the moment so I'll let someone else steam in :P

Ain't never seen a post like that before! Ever thought about just posting one set of clues at a time and stopping posting to yourself? :P ;)
