[Quakkerillo]

Nuneaton?

4. I am on, barring the WCML, the only line in the UK which Super Voyagers can tilt on.

 

[Quakkerillo]

Only tilt available is WCML, WCML - Cheadle Hulme, just north of Wolverhampton to Stafford, and WCML - Halton Junction.

So I see no more possible stations?

You're missing another line completely.

5. I formerly carried the suffix 'General'.

 

[Quakkerillo]

It must be Oxford then.

However, my information, including a 2012 topic from this site: http://www.railforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=59850
All say that the tilting clearance has been removed after Virgin CrossCountry their demise.
Only Wikipedia still says it exists, but their information is known to be taken with some extra care.

Correct, your floor.

 

[Quakkerillo]

1: We are in England, yet not in the Midlands, or anything South of that.

 

[backontrack]

Alnmouth?

 

[Gathursty]

I'm going to test the water with Ambergate because my definition of the Midlands doesn't include the Matlock Branch. I'd consider south of there in the Midlands.

 

[Quakkerillo]

My definition is the one from Wikipedia.

2: This station had between 300,000 and 400,000 entries/exits in 2013-2014.

Sowerby Bridge ?
