Trimley (sorry...)

 

[4SRKT]

Well, we could have avoided this conundrum way back if Tenby had been followed up by Yorton............

 

[MidnightFlyer]

A station ending in 'y' seems to block any further progress on a route, so, seen as Trimley's nearest station starting in 'Y' is probably Yalding in Kent, from Yorton, I'll say Nantwich.

 

[MCR247]

Could Harlech count?

 

[LE Greys]

Only place I could find that you could possibly get to from Harlech is Hadnall, and that's closed. One change could take you to Hereford.

 

[Peter Mugridge]

From Hereford...

Didcot Parkway(!)

Sorry Guys - as my suggestion of Trimley somehow has got us to Didcot Parkway, I am restarting this with...


HOVETON AND WROXHAM

HOVETON AND WROXHAM

The closest to that is Manea, and that's not even in the same county!

^edit:above was posted first. Took ages making this post lol

have to do a change so...

Manningtree

 

[4SRKT]

Elmswell

 

[MidnightFlyer]

Manningtree is ever so slightly closer (in miles and chains):
Hoveton & Wroxham to Manningtree (via Norwich station): 64.23
Hoveton & Wroxham to Manea (via Norwich station and Ely West Curve): 68.58
So Manningtree is 4 miles 35 chains closer.
Good luck finding one for 'E' on the Great Eastern ML!

Just seen the above post for Elmswell, in which case:

Littleport!

The post above yours

 

[MidnightFlyer]

The post above yours

Ah, I edited mine to reflect what had been said in 4SKRT’s post at exactly the same time you posted your post to tell me to. We really should do one from Birmingham New St, Manchester Piccadilly or Edinburgh Waverley to create more options; we've been all over the place with the last two!

2,000th post!!!!!

Tottenham Hale

 

[MidnightFlyer]

Tottenham Hale

Or Thurston, which leads you onto another 'T'!

 

[MCR247]

Enfield Lock

 

[ushawk]

Ill go on with Enfield Lock and have Kelvedon.

 

[4SRKT]

Too easy: Norwich!

 

[ushawk]

Harwich In'tl

Had to be Norwich on that one

 

[4SRKT]

In order to escape the restrictive confines of East Anglia, I'm going back in time to the 1980s when the European used to run Harwich > Peterborough > Nottingham > Manchester > Edinburgh/Glasgow and nominate Lockerbie as the next one.

Although strictly speaking Harwich International was called Harwich Parkeston Quay in those days, which leads us back down the Y cul de sac again.

 

[MCR247]

Edinburgh Haymarket, Waverley was just too hard!

 

[4SRKT]

Tulloch (on the sleeper)

 

[ushawk]

Helensburgh Upper

 

[4SRKT]

I'll need to find out where this place 'Deleted' is so that I can find a nearby station beginning with D

 

[ushawk]

Changed it now

Was gonna be for the T, but you beat me

 

[4SRKT]

Rannoch. Another H required!

You've made my last post look a bit ridiculous now!
