Be shushful!

PADDOCK Wood.


And also in the 'next station game' quiz you put Menton instead of Menston on the Wharfedale Line :D :roll:

.....but only for a moment, as you will find no edit time....:D...look at posting # 12478 if you don't believe me !!! Anyway, who helped to guide you to the winning post on that leg, including playing the "fall guy"..:roll:

Back to matters on the quiz.......

Penshust was also a South Eastern Railway station that opened in 1842.

Horsham has also recently seen it SE service handed over to SN.

Where is this...... ["Psddock Wood"] :shock:

I have tried to pronounce it....but to no avail...:roll:

Seen as "Ps" is usually pronounced minus the "P", I would hazard a guess at Sddock Wood. Say it quickly and it becomes "Stock Wood".

What was wrong with Haywards Heath? Although, it does have four platforms, so I guess Paul's association could just be carried forward to it...

Anyhow, East Didsbury is another local station in Greater Manchester, and as with Cheadle Hulme is one of the more prominent ones to not be located in one of the area's principal areas.

Poulton-le-Fylde and KIrkham and Wesham share many associations in that they are both former two-platform stations of the Preston and Wyre Joint Railway that were opened in 1840, managed currently by Northern Rail and are DfT category "E" graded and are served by services of First TPE and Northern Rail.

(That's enough to satisfy any "association" requirements)

Bellshill is also spelt in such a way that it could easily be mispronounced
