Guess the Station...

[185]

Barrhill?

Floor open if correct

 

[MidnightFlyer]

It is indeed Barrhill

 

[Track Basher]

I am fairly sure that is in Wales.

Need to think where.

Not 100% but Llandeilo

 

[Ivo]

Sorry TB - you missed the gun. I'm not sure how but 185 called it, as Matt has already said... :roll:

Hi again, by the way

 

[Track Basher]

A nice easy one to start the evening

 

[MidnightFlyer]

Liskeard

Floor open

 

[Ivo]

That is TOO easy! It even says "Looe trains" on it...!

Someone named "Ivo" will be taking the floor. Sorry I didn't earlier; I didn't want to chance this laptop! But it's working surprisingly well at present.

OK guys, what do you think?

 

[Temple Meads]

Redland?

 

[Ivo]

Not Redland. Or anywhere in Bristol for that matter.

 

[Temple Meads]

Warminster?

 

[Ivo]

Nay. The "clue" about Brizzle is all ye will be getting for now though, unless someone posts somewhere that should prompt a clue (e.g. if someone posted "Bray"; it's not in the Republic of Ireland, for obvious reasons!).
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Right, so you all know from approximately 21:00 I will not be around for roughly 90 minutes. If this is still going come that time it will either have to be suspended or someone will have to sacrifice their chance and assume responsibility for this station.

Play resumed Any ideas?

 

[Track Basher]

Yeovil Pen Mill

 

[Ivo]

Hello, exile of the north whose first name begins with a consonant in the first half of the alphabet!

Yeovil is not the site of this station I am afraid. So don't bother saying Junction either.

Is this thread not as powerful as it once was then? 15,000 posts before May, less than 5,000 since. I hope my laptop dying didn't precipitate that?

 

[ole man]

Berwick?

 

[Ivo]

Not Berwick, but a better answer than the south-western examples.

Actually, come to think of it, it probably isn't a better answer. Sorry!

This station is NORTH OF OXFORD.

 

[fgwrich]

Interesting one...Id say that its somewhere on the Chiltern Network? For some reason, im thinking it's between Kings Sutton & Lapworth...

 

[Ivo]

An answer would have gone down a bit better than "the Chiltern network"... but it's not a CH station anyway.

(Sorry; starting typing before seeing about King's Sutton or Lapworth, but neither is correct as shown above anyway.)

 

[Temple Meads]

Kingham?

 

[Ivo]

North of Oxford doesn't necessarily mean by two miles you know! Now, I'm not yet saying how much further north it is (two miles may be right; I'm not saying yet!), but can we at least have a bit of variety to the guesses, as was true of Berwick?

AKA Not Kingham.

 

[ole man]

Worcester?

 

[Ivo]

I would ask "Which one?", but er... neither is right.

 

[Temple Meads]

You want variety, OK then...

Is it Sandbach?

 

[ole man]

Aylesbury?

 

[Ivo]

It (Sandbach) is better, I'll say that much. Still not right though.

I will now say that we are looking no further south than Birmingham.

Never been to Aylesbury :?

 

[ole man]

Wellington?

 

[Ivo]

Is nae Wellington. Sorry.

 

[ole man]

Getting annoyed now Hereford?

 

[Ivo]

This thread isn't the same these days... We used to have 20 different folks chipping in every two minutes! Back then nothing could compare with this thing :roll:

Is not Hereford. Or anywhere else within about three hours of Bath.

Oh well, just be thankful that the thread is here at all

I'll take a stab at Skipton?

Ivo, it's like one in the morning (nearly) I'm impressed anyone is around to guess at all!
