The "Name the Station" game

[Robinson]

Charing.

 

[Eagle]

Correct.

 

[Buttsy]

Fails clue 1 (only served by Abellio) and clue 4 (there is no other station that contains 'Seven Kings' in its name).

I misunderstood clue 4 and I have no real interest in the owners of each franchise, just their operating name, so I'm often going to fall down with ownership questions.

 

[Robinson]

Clue 1: This station is in England, and south of Carlisle.

 

[Buttsy]

Oxenholme Lake District

 

[Eagle]

City Thameslink.

 

[Robinson]

Clue 2: This station is DC electrified.

 

[Eagle]

London Euston.

 

[Robinson]

Clue 3: This station is served by 2 TOCs, of which precisely 1 is owned by Govia.

 

[Eagle]

Sandwell and Dudley.

 

[Robinson]

Not DC electrified

Neiether is Euston, WCML is AC...

 

[Eagle]

Neiether is Euston, WCML is AC...

But the Watford DC line is DC. Hence the name.

But the Watford DC line is DC. Hence the name.

ahh, forgot about that bit, London's not a strong point...

 

[Robinson]

Clue 4: This station is located within 5 miles of a motorway.

 

[Trainfan344]

Three Bridges?

 

[Robinson]

Clue 5: At off peak times, precisely 2 classes of train are booked to call at this station (one each by the 2 TOCs which stop). At peak times, one of the TOCs may run other classes here.

Portchester

 

[Eagle]

Imperial Wharf.

 

[Robinson]

The correct answer was Swanwick.

 

[Eagle]

My answer fits all five clues too :P

Is it all 377s to Southampton then, or do you still get some 313s?

All SN Southampton services are booked to have 1st Class according to the timetable, so no 313s during normal operation...
