Blackpool North

At the start of a game, the OP(at the very beginning or if necessary) or 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.
Sorry, Tim, I should probably have mentioned this as you are new. As all valid moves from Blackpool North take you to a station on the Preston-Blackpool branch (unless I've missed something which is fast to beyond Preston), Blackpool North fails the second criterion so is not a valid starting station. Please could you pick another.

1. How to play

This extract from the rules is useful for new contestants to note.

5a. The player at the station then chooses the next starting station, although they cannot play until 3 other correct submissions have been received or 15 minutes have elapsed, whichever is sooner.

Another useful extract from the rules for new contestants to note.
