Post by: grahame on March 09, 2007, 04:52:16 Both Jim and Chris have got 5 exactly right so far. Yes, there *are* one of two that are not so easy. All pictures taken personally by myself in the last month, by the way.

Title: Re: Guess the Station - a picture quiz. Post by: BandHcommuter on March 12, 2007, 11:08:35 Correct on all counts. I'm impressed. They were spread around a whole lot of lines - where is "the office"? What an immense feeling of satisfaction, only hampered by the sad realisation that I must have spent far too much time on trains in the course of business and leisure. Indeed, only this morning I enjoyed a two way reversal at Newbury because of a points failure, followed by half an hour taking in the scenery at Theale while the traincrew sorted out a dodgy train door. It's very easy to gain a photographic memory of stations in these circumstances! The office is in central London, by the way. Better go now, the boss is watching ;) This page is printed from the "Coffee Shop" forum at http://gwr.passenger.chat which is provided by a customer of Great Western Railway.
