Name the town...

[IanPooleTrains]

Well how about Exeter then?

St. Davids, Central, St. Thomas and St. James Park?

Nope. Wrong end of the country. It's a pretty small town to have four stations.

Burnley

 

[richard1976]

Pontefract ???

 

[4SRKT]

Burnley is correct.

 

[will1337]

edit: already answered

 

[madannie77]

Right: first attempt at setting one of these quizzes.

This town's only remaining station did not originally carry the town's name, unlike three other stations now closed.

 

[will1337]

South Wigston?

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Take a stab at Gorleston

 

[madannie77]

Both wrong, or at least not the town I have in mind.

 

[317653]

This station has 3 platforms it is third rail.
It has a junction to the East and West.
It is by the seaside.

Kirkby-in-Ashfield?

Lewes? Not sure how many platforms its got.
Original guess was Dover Priory, but the junctions there are North and South of the station.

 

[atomicdanny]

Barnham?

 

[Mvann]

Littlehampton

 

[317653]

Eastbourne is the answer

 

[atomicdanny]

Eastbourne is the answer

The actual junction is to the north of the station though, where it splits east and west?

 

[MikeWh]

Eastbourne is the answer

It's worse than that, the junction is not adjacent to Eastbourne station at all. Hampden Park comes first, then the junction.

 

[317653]

Yeah, well it's near enough

 

[northernrail]

This town has 1 station with 2 platforms, it is next to a closed steel works and next to the junction to a heritage railway.

 

[Peter Mugridge]

I notice you say junction to a heritage railway rather than a junction with a heritage railway, so I'll suggest it's Middlesborough?

Nope, theres no passenger service from this town to the Heritage Railway

 

[transportphoto]

Random guess - not sure about the steel works.

The place I am thinking about is Wymondham - it has one NR station with two platforms. A junction leading to a heritage railway but it has no regular passenger service over it! (also this place has a second station for the heritage railway)

Yep-Link to the East Lancs

 

[gnolife]

there are 4 stations in this city which bear the name, and 4 in it's city centre. of the city centre stations, one can terminate trains from the west, one from the east and one from the south. Without reversing, no one train can serve all 4 that bear the name, or all 4 that are in the city centre.
