The "Name the Station" game

[clagmonster]

Cross Gates?

 

[Robinson]

Cross Gates?

I assume there's an odd TPE service somewhere which calls there?

 

[clagmonster]

There is an evening eastbound peak, I think it is a Scarborough service. I think there is a westbound in the morning peak. Clearly not the answer you are looking for then.

 

[Robinson]

Nope; that one would be too clever for me

Clue 4: This station is covered by a DITRA PA system, voiced by Phil Sayer.

 

[clagmonster]

Garforth?

 

[Welshman]

Huddersfield?

 

[Robinson]

Clue 5: This station's layout is of the "Y-shape" variety (i.e. separate sets of platforms on two routes which diverge on the approach to the station).

 

[clagmonster]

Meadowhall?

 

[Robinson]

Meadowhall?

Correct.

 

[clagmonster]

I was slightly worried there, I wasn't sure whether any MML services called these days. The Barnsley used to, I had a feeling the York might.

Clue 1:
This station is south of Carlisle.

 

[Robinson]

If you mean East Midlands Trains (EMT), I did a search and couldn't find any. Also, only Northern serve Barnsley at present.

Barnt Green? Served mostly by 323s but with 2tpd each way run by 170s...

Clue 4:
If proper nouns were allowed, no blank tiles were laid and no tiles were laid on bonus squares, this station's name would score 13 points in the standard English version of Scrabble.
