The next station is...!

[Robinson]

We shall start the next round at Kilmarnock.

 

[MidnightFlyer]

Edit - Troon

 

[Robinson]

Do trains run non-stop through Troon?
OK, the next stop will be Prestwick Town.

A couple of Stranraer trains do, aye.

Ayr (1tph runs non-stop)

 

[Robinson]

Wait, we've just left Ayr; don't think we can go straight back?

Have we? Killie-Troon-Prestwick-Ayr...

 

[Robinson]

I accepted your answer of Ayr, so we're heading back north...

 

[MidnightFlyer]

I accepted your answer of Ayr, so we're heading back north...

Well I've been doing this off Troon, as was stated...

 

[Robinson]

OK, so we're leaving Ayr, the next stop is Newton-on-Ayr.

 

[MidnightFlyer]

We can't change direction can we?

 

[Robinson]

Apparently we can, or at least we've been playing that we can since the last rules clarification...

 

[STKKK46]

Think the rules are this - You can change direction but only on a stated service that doesn't stop at said stations. Example.... Earlier, I won with Stratford Upon Avon, when somebody could have mentioned the non stop train to Henley In Arden which is one a day. This would have been a legal move I believe.

Think we should probably take this back to somewhere around Troon to avoid confusion??

 

[Temple Meads]

In which case we head to Prestwick International Airport

 

[STKKK46]

Prestwick Town

 

[Temple Meads]

Newton-on-Ayr

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

The only chance I get to play on this particular "quick-fire" quiz and make a posting that has not already been beaten by the time that I make my posting, is to set my alarm clock for 0430:roll:


Ayr........(incidentally, looking at the previous posting, are there all that many services that serve Newton-on-Ayr these days) ?

 

[STKKK46]

Let's get this over with!! Maybole

 

[Robinson]

Girvan.

Hourly off-peak according to National Rail (which would be every other Glasgow-Ayr train), up to twice-hourly in the peak.

 

[STKKK46]

I'll leave this boring, predictable line with Barrhill. Whoever seals it please pick somewhere a little more intense!!

 

[Robinson]

Stranraer, where this service terminates.

 

[Temple Meads]

Bugger 2 seconds too late
That's the win for Robinson.

 

[Robinson]

Starting the next one at Poole.

I would say that this game's as predictable as we make it! Which is presumably the reason for starting on a through line...

 

[Temple Meads]

To Hamworthy

 

[Robinson]

The next station is Holton Heath.

 

[Temple Meads]

Wareham next up.

 

[Robinson]

Now Wool.

 

[Temple Meads]

Moreton next station stop on this South West Trains service.

 

[Robinson]

We are now approaching Dorchester South.

HINT: Check SWT's stopping patterns...

 

[STKKK46]

Weymouth on a fast train. 10.26 for example.

 

[Robinson]

We have to change to FGW now, so we head on to Upwey on whatever runs on that line (153? 158?)
