The "Name the Station" game

[Robinson]

Helensburgh Central?

 

[clagmonster]

Queenborough?

 

[Ivo]

Clue 2: This station's name ends in a letter found in the word "Twerp".

 

[clagmonster]

Aber?

 

[Ivo]

Clue 3: This station is south-east of an imaginary line between Felixstowe and Brighton.

 

[clagmonster]

St. Leonard's Warrior Square?

 

[gnolife]

Shoeburyness

 

[Ivo]

gnolife just snuck in there with his response before Clue 4 invalidated it - but it was a dud anyway. Shoeburyness fails Clue 2. (I believe it is also the only c2c station to not fail Clue 3 - even the legendary Twerp is too far to the west.)

Clue 4: This station is on a line which has been operated by a TOC with the word "east" in its name for at least some of the period since 1996.

 

[gnolife]

Shoeburyness

Oh *&^%. I read both clue 1 and clue 2 as 'Not' this, that or the other.

Margate

 

[clagmonster]

Walmer?

 

[gnolife]

Walmer?

You seem to have made the opposite mistake to the one I made with Shoeburyness.

 

[clagmonster]

No, in actual fact I mis-spelt Twerp without the letter W. A far more elimentary mistake but with the same penalty of 1 point.

 

[Ivo]

Is Walmer a Terp station then?

Clue 5: This station is less than ten minutes away from the station where all services in one direction terminate.

 

[gnolife]

Southend Airport

 

[Ivo]

Is too far to the west. If points are still being applied though, I would suggest the margin is small enough for a Penalty to be unfair. The little hint I gave in relaiton to Shoeburyness should have been a bit of a hint though

Nobody said that the line had to be straight!

 

[Ivo]

Nice try If the line wasn't straight the clue would have been dismissed as unreasonable because it could theoretically cover the whole country!

 

[Robinson]

Swale?

 

[Ivo]

Swale is correct.

 

[Robinson]

Phew; I typed that having absolutely no idea what the little hint at Shoeburyness was all about...
