Can I ask for a clarification of clue 1 - you say that this station sees locomotive hauled trains. Do they actually stop at this station?

No locomotive hauled trains are booked to stop at the station in question. But you should see plenty of them if you visit this station.

Harrow & Wealdstone?

I'm hoping that there's freight from Felixstowe or somewhere like that that heads up the WCML.

 

[Temple Meads]

Clue 4: This station is served by two TOC's that mainly use electric stock (although not exclusively).

 

[Eagle]

St Denys.

 

[Temple Meads]

St Denys.

Correct!

 

[Eagle]

Actually, I've just realized it isn't. As well as having London and Cardiff trains pass through, there's a daily Edinburgh train.

Open floor anyway.

It does says "at least" two.

I would take the floor but I'm off out soon.

I'll grab the floor then

I'm probably leaving myself open for a penalty, but Ealing Broadway?

I'd say Ealing Broadway should be valid, assuming no Wales-bound services stop there (yeah, right )

Clue 5: This station is an integrated transport interchange between National Rail and another form of railed transport.

 

[Eagle]

I'd say Ealing Broadway should be valid, assuming no Wales-bound services stop there (yeah, right )

But Southampton Central isn't valid.
