Station association

Maybe I'm just having one of those days, but how is Leyland anything like that?

You might want to check the order of the posts again there...

Indeed, one of those days it is then Post deleted.

Manningtree also serves as a junction for a service to a port town.

(Relates to Truro a few posts previous to this.)

 

[Eagle]

Bedwyn was also the last NSE-operated station on a mainline.

 

[12CSVT]

At Tipton the line runs alongside a canal

 

[Ivo]

Tring also sees Pendolinos running through without stopping.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Lewes and Tring are both five-platform stations

 

[Class172]

Barnt Green and Lewes are V-shaped stations served by both EMUs and DMUs.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Lichfield City and Barnt Green are London Midland managed stations at opposite ends of the Cross-City Line.

 

[Ivo]

Carlisle also has a rare suffix (albeit one that is not seen very often).

Theoretically I could have said the same for Lichfield's other station

 

[Class172]

Both Carlisle (Citadel) and London Marylebone have featured in television adverts (Homebase; Trainline.com)

 

[ValleyLines142]

I was going to use the very nice distinction of Marylebone being the only non-electrified terminal station in London, then I realised I had to associate it with another station, so was going to use Blackfriars as a terminal station not to be managed by Network Rail; however, this has changed now that the terminal platforms have been removed from Blackfriars in connection with the Thameslink Programme.

Anyway, back on track, Widney Manor is a station the opened in 1899, like Marylebone.

Acocks Green also has a car park occupying the trackbed of 2 lifted lines

Tribute is the TIS in use at Acocks Green, as it at NORWICH

[Eagle]

Stratford on Avon is an inland terminus.

 

[Class172]

Great Malvern also is served by LM as well as having services to London.

 

[Eagle]

Great Malvern has a direct service to Brighton, which I believe is the longest service to run with a Class 2 headcode.

 

[Ivo]

Although the above service is operated by DMUs, most DMUs from Brighton end up at Ashford International.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Ashford International is the only station outside of London to be served by Eurostar (unless Ebbsfleet is out of London).

 

[Ivo]

Two points:

(1) Ebbsfleet is outside of London.
(2) You highlighted Ashford, when it is the station you need to provide a connection to.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Ah, thought so:

In that case, St Pancras International is a station served by both HS1 and Eurostar.

 

[Eagle]

Stone also had a lot more services calling at in in 2008 than it did in 2006.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Shenstone is a station served entirely by London Midland.

 

[Ivo]

Smethwick Rolfe Street is also usually served by LM 323s.

 

[ValleyLines142]

Smethwick Rolfe Street is also usually served exclusively by LM 323s.

Ah, believe it or not, there are three express services from SMR; these being a Liverpool, Birmingham and Crewe service. Presumably these are operated by 350's. Many apologies if I am wrong.

That's Galton Bridge

 

[ValleyLines142]

Unless someone has been playing fool on Wiki:

Under services.??

Because I thought it was Galton Bridge as well.

Aye, but three services a day doesn't change the word 'usually' in Ivo's post

 

[ValleyLines142]

Ah fair play, I didn't see the usually there

But are we accepting this or not?? As I'd like proceed! hehehehehehehe..

 

[MidnightFlyer]

Yeah, Ivo's connection is perfectly valid in my eyes.
