Title: Re: Vintage rail poster quiz Post by: grahame on May 22, 2019, 15:32:39 12/14 too ... not unhappy with that. Too busy laughing towards the end at the idea of the "Historic City of Milton Keynes" ...

Title: Re: Vintage rail poster quiz Post by: paul7575 on May 22, 2019, 19:09:34 12/14. Glasgow has “coastal sights”? Presumably with high powered binoculars...

Title: Re: Vintage rail poster quiz Post by: Kempis on May 22, 2019, 22:01:26 12/14 for me (got Brighton and Glasgow wrong). Thanks for posting it.
Title: Re: Vintage rail poster quiz Post by: JayMac on May 22, 2019, 22:17:20 12/14. I failed on Glasgow like others, and the Tramways one - guessed Liverpool.
