Have another go CfN. You weren't quick enough!  Tongue

Alright - I'll cut to the chase - Enfield Chase (picture 23)!  Wink Cheesy Grin

To be fair, the station name appears on a board on the far platform in your picture.  Otherwise, there's no way I would have been able to identify it.  Tongue Roll Eyes Embarrassed

Yes. Correct! On a plate. I was editing and re-hosting that picture while you were posting. You'll see the board has now been blanked.  Embarrassed

This isn't a second guess within the first 24 hours (whoever would do such a thing?!), but I have an uneasy feeling that there's possibly a Taunton in there, somewhere ...  Wink Cheesy Grin

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.
