Potters Bar, there's two platforms going Down, and one heading Up

But it still has 4 platforms, as does Bolton. So what was wrong with my post?

Hang on, ignore me, I'm thinking of Hatfield

Barry Island is on a one-station branch off a through line.

 

[NightatLaira]

So is North Berwick

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Thurso is a one platform terminal station, managed by FirstScotrail, on a branch line, similar to North Berwick.

That's a triple connection...but the two stations are very many miles apart.

 

[mmac]

East Kilbride is a single platform terminal managed by Scotrail on a branch line

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Bognor Regis is a terminal station on a branch line, as is East Kilbride

Bognor Regis is the only station on its branch line, much like Clacton-on-Sea

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Colchester has CS, as does Clacton-on-Sea.

Thank god, I thought we'd be on branch lines all week.

London Liverpool Street also has three trains an hour to Ipswich.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Norwich was the northern terminal station on the main line of the Great Eastern Railway, whilst the southern terminal station was London Liverpool Street.

Whats wrong with branch lines... they are quite unusual in many ways.

Not being funny, but where is Gatley from the last posting in this posting as an association?

 

[NightatLaira]

Crewe is the 'Doncaster' of the WCML, i.e. - it is a busy station, with a lot of railway history in the town, with associated works, many surrounding junctions, and with lots of passing traffic both freight and passenger, but not everything stops there - although most things do.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Gorton once had a large locomotive works, as did Crewe.

 

[martinsh]

Romford was formerly electrified at 1500V DC, as was Gorton

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

And from the way you typed it, they are both verbs too!

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Oxford has CS, as does Reading.


Incidentally, I have heard of stations at Woking and Worksop...but I am hard pressed to find the one called Working... from a few posts ago

 

[MidnightFlyer]
