[The Sleeper]

Exeter St Davids?

I too think its EXD platform 2 -down Main

 

[Temple Meads]

Agreed, I know EXD well, and that looks the spitting image.

 

[Clint]

I'm off to bed. If my guess turns out to be correct, open floor.

 

[Track Basher]

Exeter St Davids?

Is indeed the correct answer.

The Sleeper nips in with this picture taken on my old Kodak instamatic by my 9 year old sister!

 

[Matt Taylor]

Harwich Town.

 

[Deerfold]

What?! It's clearly Bournville. The clue is in the purple windowframes.

Well done from last night - that was the big clue. Apologies for not confirming earlier - I was rather shorter of internet last night than I expected.

 

[Matt Taylor]

I'm 99% sure about Harwich town, but I have some trains to work so OFIR (Open floor if right)!

As you had so much fun with the last one of mine try this.

Something to note you can see the old lion and wheel under the blue paint. I only noticed this when I got the slides back.

A couple of clues to start you off.

It is at a station where peaks were normally seen and it was taken in 1984.

 

[gg1]

Sheffield?

 

[Track Basher]

To borrow a phrase, It's good but it's not right.

 

[transportphoto]

What?! It's clearly Bournville. The clue is in the purple windowframes.

That was my first reaction, shame I wasn't around then! I remember using that help point during some disruption and getting nothing more than what was coming over the PA. Helpful.

 

[steamybrian]

Excuse me TB but......
...I do not see any part of a station in your photo only the side of a "Peak"................

 

[Track Basher]

Slight technicality none of the station is visible.

It is in one though. I have provided a couple of clues. I do not intend this to stay like this long I have another photo taken at the same time from a different angle.

OK to give you a chance.

Same loco, same location.

 

[OxtedL]

Liverpool Lime Street...?

 

[Temple Meads]

That's Bristol Temple Meads

 

[Track Basher]

No it isn't and not Liverpool either.
