Does Stourbridge Town not run foul of the rules on what stations can be used to begin a leg?

It is on NR rails (or Merseyrail)
It is not just a terminal station (There are two or more different stations that can be reached from it, on separate lines.)
It is not the same station as the one which ended the previous leg.

the I shall commence the next round at Stourbridge Town.

the player who previously ended a leg of the journey, will choose a starting station (unless the player has called an open floor, in which any player can choose a starting station) that adheres to the following criteria:

It is on NR rails (or Merseyrail)
It is not just a terminal station (There are two or more different stations that can be reached from it, on separate lines.)
It is not the same station as the one which ended the previous leg.
Unfortunately, Stourbridge Town, as a branch terminus, does not meet the requirements set about in rule 1 for a starting station. Please could you nominate another.

Please could you both edit in details of the parliamentary bonuses for these stations, as they are served only by the 06:52 Worcester Foregate Street to Oxford General. This will make life easier when I come to compile the scores. Thanks in advance.

If a submission to the quiz is incorrect, but there have been no further posts, the author may edit their post, so long as the original is shown as crossed out. After striking through an incorect entry, you mustuse reply rather than edit to post your new entry. This aims to prevent confusion to allow for smooth proceedings.
Class172, please could you note this extract from the rules. I believe Adtrainz has made this change to the rules since you were a regular contestant, and the way you have made the change did used to be the accepted way of doing things. I can also see there was no advantage gained by not following the rules to the letter, so in this case I see no reason to take things any further than pointing it out to prevent any confusion in future.

Also, welcome back. Sorry if it seems I have been overly pedantic with your postings.

Thanks for making me aware of the rule changes Clagmonster; I had assumed that since the game had settled down, nothing had changed. In which case, we now depart for
