5. No specific suggestions, but the very short platform makes me think of the Heart of Wales line.

All 3 correct. 5 may make you think of Wales, but it isn't  Facebook users - I have been experimenting with the Coffee Shop feed over there - if you visit https://www.facebook.com/CoffeeShopCRP/posts/3062520043995094 you should see one of the "then and now" images and not the disruption map which normally appears there whatever post is shared. I HAVE had a report of it not working for someone, so a quick flick through to test by one or two members would be appreciated! Thanks |

Yes - and at 2cm shorter than Cononbridge said to be the shortest public platform on the network! 2 Truro?
Also correct ... and that's all five completed. I have five more - though one or two may not be quite as they seem, and most are exceedingly easy! 6.  7.  8.  9.  10.  |

6. The daggerboards look to have been trimmed over the trains. Have trains got bigger since steam days? I suppose I ought to say Basingstoke.

10. I'm pretty sure is Newport, with that shiny new spaceship looking a lot less new and shiny from platform level. But where the "before" picture is I've no idea, other than not the same place and not the same direction.

I believe so. Never been there, but it featured in a fairly recent TV series, "abandoned engineering" I think. |

A proper intercity train has a minimum of 8 coaches, gangwayed throughout, with first at one end, and a full sized buffet car between first and standard.
It has space for cycles, surfboards,luggage etc.
A 5 car DMU▸ is not a proper inter-city train. The 5+5 and 9 car DMUs are almost as bad.
