It is indeed in the UK.

Correctamundo! Your floor.

 

[DasLunatic]

Attached is a station as it appears in the Sectional Appendices.

What station is it, and which Appendix does it appear in?

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

Attached is a station as it appears in the Sectional Appendices.

What station is it, and which Appendix does it appear in?

Its not Newhaven marine, so I will guess Hatfield & Stainforth

 

[DasLunatic]

Its not Newhaven marine, so I will guess Hatfield & Stainforth

It is not Hatfield and Stainforth.

 

[RJ21]

Now that's a good way to use up some time, Blythe Bridge, LNE Sectional Appendix LN 3505 Seq 007, just as well LNE is alphabetically first in the file names.

Open floor.

 

[DasLunatic]

It was Blythe Bridge, as found in the LNE Sectional Appendix. It is an open floor.

Cantley station contains a very rare UK beast. What is it?

 

[Calthrop]

Cantley station contains a very rare UK beast. What is it?

Boat Rose of Cantley, which has since 2012 been on the platform, acting as a flowerbed?

In the event of my being correct with this -- open floor please.

 

[TheEdge]

Not an open floor as it's a wrong answer.

To avoid confusion I mean within Cantley station limits

 

[Ash Bridge]

Wouldn't be a barrow crossing by any chance?

 

[TheEdge]

Wouldn't be a barrow crossing by any chance?

No, much much rarer than that. Although a crossing is closer than a flower boat.

 

[DaleCooper]

A level crossing at both ends?

 

[TheEdge]

Nope. We are talking incredibly rare on the national network.

 

[Whistler40145]

A staff operated Level Crossing?

 

[HMS Ark Royal]

Nope. We are talking incredibly rare on the national network.

Home to the only train on the Southern network that runs on time, has no complaints from passengers and is operating with a guard?

 

[DaleCooper]

A tree?

 

[TheEdge]

No, no and no. It's lineside equipment

 

[Whistler40145]

The rather tall Signal at the platform end, adjacent to the Level Crossing?

 

[TheEdge]

The rather tall Signal at the platform end, adjacent to the Level Crossing?

Go on...

 

[Whistler40145]

Is it also the last Somersault signal in the country?

 

[TheEdge]

Nope. It's one of only three remaining examples of this type of signal on the national network

 

[Whistler40145]

It is lit using an oil lamp?

 

[TheEdge]

Nope.

 

[Whistler40145]

I give up.

One of the few Upper Quadrant signals still in use on the Network Rail system?

 

[Ash Bridge]

Last remaining semaphore starter signals?

 

[DasLunatic]

This setup?

(AWS magnet, followed by semaphore signal)
