Where am I?

[Buttsy]

Eccles Road.

Correct

 

[RJ21]

Maps & aerial photos are something I use a lot, good quiz for me.
So, another from OS land.

 

[Gathursty]

Hooton

 

[RJ21]

Hooton it is.

 

[Class172]

That would've been an easy one for me, given the distinctive kink in the M53 at the top of the map.

 

[Gathursty]

Sorry for the delay. Hopefully this might be a challenge.

 

[Buttsy]

Correct

 

[RJ21]

I had this one ready a couple of days ago, an then forgot about it.

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Queen's Park in Glasgow.


Open floor if I'm right; no time at the moment to be chopping maps about.

 

[RJ21]

Yes, you're right, I just went East less than a mile. Open floor it is.

 

[Peter Mugridge]

Yes, you're right, I just went East less than a mile. Open floor it is.

That's not how I found it; I could see the shadows of the masts on the platform and the particular way the line curves made it obvious it was either on a loop or near a shallow junction - not a lot of those with overheads...

 

[Strat-tastic]

Your station knowledge truly amazes me guys

 

[Class172]

Here's a new one for you all.

 

[Ash Bridge]

Is it Lye?

 

[Class172]

It is indeed, well done.

 

[Ash Bridge]

Thanks,

Try this one...

 

[Buttsy]

Harling Road?

 

[Ash Bridge]

Harling Road?

Not that one, sorry.

 

[Class172]

Stewartby?

 

[Ash Bridge]

Stewartby?

Not Stewartby, I think it time for a clue so I will add that this is a Northern managed station.

 

[Gathursty]

Have you rotated the image?

 

[Class172]

Looks like that may be the case, given the nature of the shadows on the image... that or it was very early in the morning when the satellite passed over.

Absolutely no rotation of the image.

Hunmanby?

That's the one, well done!
