RULES OF THE QUIZ

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!

For example I might start with Cardiff Central, the next person would reply Kings Cross (both have a platform 0) and the person after could say Gatwick Airport (another Network Rail managed major station, then someone will reply with another station which has something in common with Gatwick Airport.

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.

Perhaps an opportune time to show the above.
