The only route out is to Stratford-upon-Avon Parkway

 

[DanTrain]

A 'leg' starts when the winner of the previous leg posts a station. (This shouldn't be the station that ended the previous leg, or a terminal station with fewer than two routes out)

But it has more than one route out, you can go to Warwick or to Stratfor Parkway (or to one or two others I think)

 

[A Challenge]

Warwick involves passing through Stratford-upon-Avon Parkway though

 

[Whistler40145]

Indeed, the route off to Hatton and the Chiltern Mainline goes off after Stratford upon Avon Parkway, so Stratford upon Avon is an invalid starting point.

We could do with an official adjudication on this, I know BackonTrack has been questioning this to do with Eastbourne and Thurso. I take fewer than two routes out to be only one legitimate move, but others take it to be either only one route or to be just if there's only one service (i.e. allowed at Thurso even though only one valid move).

Seeing as the collective view among those higher than me is that the same route counts as only one route out, let's restart at Wilmcote

I have sent a PM to the quizmasters as they wrote the rules to clarify them.

Both TimSYoung40145 and A Challenge who were involved in the recent thread discussion are both fully accredited adjudicators to this quiz
