False

3) I am served by 3 brand names of one TOC.

Gatwick Airport?

 

[trainmania100]

False

4) I have 2 platforms

Gatwick airport sees GWR services and 3 other brands so is incorrect lol

 

[godfreycomplex]

Ah; but you didn't say only those three brands
Never mind
Hassocks?

[trainmania100]

Wivelsfield?

It is indeed

Wivelsfield has 2 platforms. third rail electrification and is served by Govia Thameslink Railway's brands Southern, Thameslink and Gatwick Express.
It sees regular Acton to Newhaven Day Aggregates trains, with the Thursday service taking Ash from newhaven, in KEAs to Acton.
Videos in my sig.

Over to you Godfrey

 

[godfreycomplex]

Crikey; I thought Newhaven aggregates closed years ago but apparently not!
Alors...
Clue 1 - this station is one stop away from a train crew depot

 

[trainmania100]

Preston Park

 

[Islineclear3_1]

Hove....

 

[trainmania100]

London Road (Brighton)

 

[Islineclear3_1]

East (or West) Croydon

 

[godfreycomplex]

Clue 2 - all rolling stock serving this station is over 25 years old.

 

[trainmania100]

Smallbrook Junction

 

[Islineclear3_1]

West Norwood (for Streatham Hill TCD)

(By serving, do you mean actually stop at, rather than pass through)

 

[trainmania100]

Ryde Esplanade

 

[godfreycomplex]

Clue 3 - this station is north of the Thames.

 

[Islineclear3_1]

Clue 3 - this station is north of the Thames.

I was going to say Hendon (as it's one stop away from Cricklewood TCD) but now 387s stop there (and they are less than 25 years old)

So, Finsbury Park?

 

[godfreycomplex]

Sadly not (incidentally; I do mean stop at; rather than pass through). Finsbury Park has 365 stopping; which are marginally younger.
Clue 4 - this station is signalled from a computer screen

 

[Islineclear3_1]

Bethnal Green (assuming 379s don't stop)

 

[godfreycomplex]

Clue 5 - this station's name could feasibly be that of a person.
