15 Ramsgate

Is 11 Rowsley on the Midland's Derby-Manchester main line?

I also thought 8 was Leeds, but it isn't. Right '30s period, though...

I think you will find it is somewhat later than 1930's .....

15 is Ramsgate, correct!

We're still in the first 24 hours, please note the request in the OP (Original Poster / topic starter). As a relative newbie I'll let you off the multiple guesses, seeing as only one was correct.  Tongue

To be fair, this remodelled station building does date in part from the 1930s.

I did not know that I thought the bit shown was entirely from the 1974 rebuild. Are any 1930's bits visible in that photo?
