Not bad, fourth loss of the day

Since 1st September, is it not the case that the leg-winner receives 60% of the points, with 40% going to the person making the penultimate posting on such a leg?

Can we change the scoring section of the rules to make it clear?

Only the forum quizmasters can now make such a change, as adtrainz who originally set up this quiz (with a lot of help from me in 2011), is no longer connected with this website. The rules section on the very first posting of the thread was totally re-written by the forum quizmaster team some years ago after a year-long discussion period with the then quiz adjudicators.

Incidentally, when the forum quizmaster team made a posting on the thread recently to say the existing scoring system was going to be changed, affecting any legs after 1st September 2019, I did notify them of exactly what you have said above, so it is in their hands to do.

You will note that the second posting on the thread that is accredited to Darren R, another person who is no longer connected with this website is still in use for the RED SECTION and also for clickable links to scoresheets, current and past. The two accredited scorers, together with the forum quizmasters, are now in charge of updating this information.

Castleton Road

When was the last time that Castleton station carried such a name as this? It started off being called Blue Pits when the station was on the other side of the road overbridge to where the current station is now situated.

By convention the full English names of stations are used - the name as given by National Rail Enquires is considered to be definitive.
