We all have something in common in this, WE'RE ALL NORTHERNERS TRYING TO NAME SOUTH-EASTERN STATIONS WHICH WE'VE NEVER BEEN TO!

Not quite. I'm a northerner who now lives near these stations.

NoMorePacers: If you're struggling to name stations on a line that you've never heard of (and heck, we've all been there), then you can look it up on Wikipedia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maidstone_Line

Or, even better, you can download the full TOC zoomable map of the UK Rail Network by Project Mapping onto your computer. It allows you to plan moves, because you can zoom in on an area and see all the available rail routes, operators and stations there.

Why do you keep going on about York, if you live in Kent.

Because I used to live there, and I love it there. We had to move south because of my dad's job, but I'd prefer to be up north, really.

Is that enough for you? Would you like my life story so far? Should I write my autobiography?

Strike,

Hollingbourne

And what does that 'strike' mean, exactly?

Tim still needs to strike through his Harrietsham. I played it before you.

Brilliant. Hop on a train to Marseilles while you're at it, will you?

You know, it's really hard to believe that you're a full 4 years older than me. :roll:

Simples: I played Beltring before Tonbridge was played.

Backie managed to play Beltring before your Tonbridge. A pain, because I had a winner at Bat and Ball lined up which I now can't use.

 

[Whistler40145]

NoMorePacers posted Tunbridge Wells, but omitted High Brooms, so where should we be?

Sorry about that, but NoMorePacers had played Tunbridge Wells, so it's not as if you would have got there anyway. Unless I had then played High Brooms, then Waterloo East, then travelled down to Sevenoaks that way. I'm rambling. Never mind.

ROYAL Tunbridge Wells

 

[Whistler40145]

NoMorePacers, please strikethrough your post of Tunbridge Wells

 

[DasLunatic]

We're at East Farleigh, with me making the last move. You and NoMorePacers need to strikethrough your Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells respectively.
