Glossop is another station which has been electrified for many years, but was originally done using a different system to the current one (though some of the original equipment was retained).

Prestatyn is four stations east of Llandudno Junction while four stations west of Llandudno Junction is Bangor.

Sorry to intercede, but the current Stockton railway station was not opened until 1852 and is not the same as the one that was opened by the Stockton and Darlington Railway.
You have got to be kidding me. So, neither Stockton nor Darlington are the originals?!
Darlington was also the scene of a rail accident with fatalities in 1928.
In which case, Alnmouth is served by the same TOCs

Remember that this is the Station Association quiz, not the Settlement Association quiz.

Whilst Stockton was indeed the correct settlement, its railway station that is currently in use is not the original railway station that was used by the railway in question.
