I was freezing at 0730 this morning at Cardiff Central!!

[ValleyLines142]

Preston is also managed by Virgin.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Cambridge is also an eight-platform station.

 

[Welshman]

That made me think!

But, by counting the subdivisions, you're right!

Since the demise of the platform at Manchester Victoria/Exchange, Cambridge has reputedly the third-longest platform on the network.

There's debate whether Colchester or Gloucester has the longest, but let's say

Gloucester

Burley-in-Wharfedale is also a station with two platforms managed and served only by Northern.

Sorry about this.....But the previous clue only had ONE platform.

Entwistle is still the one to make an accquaintance with.

Oh poo. And it does. I thought there was one platform for Blackburn and Clitheroe, and one for Bolton and Manchester :P you can tell that was a stab in the dark hehe!

Note to self: Do not guess!

But, Burley will still be fine as both are managed by Northern; it's a lame association I know but it'll be okay to get out of my error.

 

[VTPreston_Tez]
