According to NRE there is no station with code SHA... :?

SHA was the code for the now closed station of Shaw (formerly Shaw and Crompton) which will reopen as a station on the Oldham and Rochdale line of the Manchester Metrolink.

It seems we have had a few problems with this thread, so I'd just like to remind everyone:

1) Please only use station codes officially used by National Rail.

2) Post the codes exactly as they appear on the NR planner.

3) Up until now, things have been a little haywire, with codes being used from just about every heavy and light rail system in the country. I appreciate that it has been this way from the beginning, but I think we need to be a little more strict about what we are using. Therefore, I'd like to ask that henceforth we only use codes from the mainline (eg: Great Northern, ECML, WCML) and the London Underground. No more codes from Metro and tram systems (eg: T&W, Manchester Metrolink).

4) Finally, only use codes from the UK. I don't think we have had any foreign codes posted, but this is just a reminder.

I'm really glad this game has continued for so long and I hope it can continue to do so. Hopefully, this new criteria will make the game better for everyone.

If you have any problems, please feel free to PM me.

That's right! SHA was Shaw & Crompton. Sorry if anyone found it confusing!
