Ah, crud <(

By the way folks, I have not deducted points from anyone for any purpose in rounds that have not been completed. I thought of this now because this is my third error, even though the analysis said I had made only one other - because my first "offence" was in a round that was voided.

Clue 4:
In the rules of this station's countries' language, the 2 words of this station would score 25 points in Scrabble, assuming no blank tiles were used and none of the tiles were placed on a 'special' square.

I feel it will become a common clue 4 type. Just a shame were not allowed to leave the BR system.
Just as a heads up, I will not be able to post any responses or further clues until around 22:00. Please accept my appologies.

Coatbridge Central? (The rush hour route in this case being the peak services which extend from Motherwell on the Argyle Line...)

Fairy 'nuff.

The answer is Strawberry Hill. The only clue I think warrent any explanation is the 2 services, the main service is the Kingston Roundabout, the peak hour only service is Waterloo-Shepperton via Twickers.

Clue 1: This station is in Great Britain.

I hadn't heard of Strawberry Hill depot; that would be why I couldn't think of anything at clue 5...

On the present game: Portsmouth Harbour?

And there I was thinking no-one would ace a "Great Britain" clue. Might be time to change your tactic there claggy ;)

On a personal note, I've lost top spot because of that :cry:

Oops. Dumbo here forgot that OB is actually a suburb of Lowestoft, not independent of it :roll: And that means the last three C penalties have all been me!
