As 24 hours have now passed, I would like to suggest that number 10 is Golspie on the Far North line ??

It is indeed.  And they have.

..or Falmouth, as a Google search reveals the local council has had a campaign to encourage the use of such bags? My guess would be Docks rather than Town station

11.  Taunton. 

Worth a shout.  Roll Eyes
Logged

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.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.

A correct guess ... This is on the wall that separates platform 1 from Ranelagh Road.  Less seen than it deserves as it's on the road not the rail side of the wall, and in a direction that few visitors walk when they arrive by train.

11.  Taunton. 

Worth a shout.  Roll Eyes

Indeed - but not a seaside, so not included in this quiz.
