[Xenophon PCDGS]

I say a station and the person below would say another station that has something in common with it. It doesn't have to be unique, but try and make it as different as possible and please ensure that all associations are rail related: a separate game exists for non-rail related links.

Note that you should only reply with a station on the main BR network (e.g. not Underground or Preserved Railway) that is still open.

The rules seem clear on this and the only station spelt Bridgewater as in the last posting is to be found on the New Jersey Transit which is nowhere near to the main BR network.

The British station of Bridgwater does not therefore meet the station association criteria that was stated in the last posting.

Bridgwater - both named after bridges

Bridgwater - both named after bridges

The associations are meant to be rail related, and besides, looking at the history of Bridgwater it does not seem to have been named after a bridge, but I’m happy to be shown otherwise.

And without town names you wouldn’t have station names. Very related to me. If the town was named after something else it would be called sonething else.

I'm afraid that @andyallen4014 is correct in this case. The association needs to be about the station itself. Associations such as this are better off in the Settlement Association game (https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/settlement-association.54265/).
Many thanks,
