The Spotting Game

[Robinson]

No it isn't.

 

[Pen Mill]

Highbury & Islington ?

 

[Robinson]

Correct (Canonbury would also be correct).

 

[Pen Mill]

class 165 , probably several answers for this one

 

[37 418]

London Paddington?

 

[Robinson]

London Marylebone?

 

[150222]

Reading?

 

[Pen Mill]

I would say Marylebone as Chiltern have a couple more sets than FGW .

 

[150222]

Banbury?

 

[Robinson]

Well if Marylebone is correct, let's go with the class 350.

 

[150222]

Northampton?

 

[Robinson]

I don't think it's Northampton.

 

[150222]

London Euston?

 

[Robinson]

London Euston is what I was thinking of (on the basis that there are more trains that don't reach Northampton from there than there are trains that don't reach Euston from Crewe/Birmingham).

Class 153?

 

[Robinson]

Doncaster?

 

[150222]

Doncaster?

Doupt it.

 

[Robinson]

Nottingham?

 

[150222]

I wouldn't think so.

Lincoln?

Finally
Manchester Piccadilly gets 2 175s an hour, Shrewsbury, Chester, Llandudno Junction, Hereford and Cardiff get 3 per 2 hour, Crewe gets 1 per hour

I'm going to be quite controversial here and say that I personally think Cardiff has more. Every hour, there's a Manchester service, a Holyhead service (every 2 hours) and a Milford Haven service.

But if we go really specific, between 4.45pm and 5.45pm there's five trains an hour: the 1650 to Manchester, the 1704 to Tenby, the 1718 to Maesteg and the 1721 to Holyhead and the 1739 to Milford Haven - these are all 175s!! Definitely more here than Manchester, nearly double as many! There's at least three per hour not on the Holyhead hour trains (these are every 2 hours).

Lincoln?

I would think so.
