Filton Abbey Wood is another station on a route served by two different Intercity operators - only one of whom actually stops there on a regular basis.

Ashford International also has a suffix as part of its official name despite being the only station in the settlement it serves.

Calais-Fréthun is also served by Eurostar, but like Ashford International only sees a few stopping there each day.

Hang on - I thought we had to choose British NR stations on this game...

Doesn't say you have to at the beginning...

Although if people aren't happy we'll go with Ebbsfleet International as it's on the same line and also served by Eurostar.

Rawcliffe is also managed by Northern Rail and sees a single figure number of passenger trains per day.

Hang on - how is this an association with Fairwater? :-?

Fairwater is served by ATW, and is managed by ATW.

I think he just meant in association with the fact it is served by one operator, regardless of who manages the station. I had to look twice too in fairness but although potentially misleading, is still valid I believe.

Wembley Stadium is also named after and serves a famous attraction (can stadia be called attractions?) in London that bears the name of its locality.

Relating to Kew Gardens

Hull also has 7 platforms (although one is rarely used) and is also one of the various outlying terminal stations served just once daily by East Coast.

Hatfield is also widely known to the general public for being the location of a fatal 21st Century rail crash.
