An almost-traditional "Where is this?" quiz - one each please for the first 24 hours. And we break tradition by having a link between all the pictures. Can you tell me what that is? 1.  2.  3.  4.  5.  6.  7.  8.  9.  10.  11.  12.  |

No 2 is on the line of the former Wilts and Berks Canal through Swindon. This section is just behind the houses on the north side of Curtiss Street, which is I believe very near where one our members lives.

6 is the underpass between the station and the town in Melksham. Almost graffiti free - I?ve seen it worse.

I would hope that no 8 is not Chippenham High Street! I think you might mean no 7, and I would agree with you. |

Correct so far:
1. Thingley Junction - Bradshaw
2. Swindon - Ellendune
6. Melksham - Bobm
12. Euston - Phil Wakely
Neither 7 nor 8 are Chippenham; 4 is not Melksham, nor staff in training for the station cafe there - but it would be really lovely to have something special like top notch street food there. German theme would be appropriate as the station is sponsored by Knorr Bremse, based in Munich.

No 5 is outside the Bryant & May factory between Liverpool Street and Stratford (specifically Bow), maybe?

2. Swindon - Ellendune
3. Glasgow Central - Zoe
6. Melksham - Bobm
9. Paddington - TonyN
11. Glasgow Central - Bignosemac
12. Euston - Phil Wakely
Number 5, sorry, not between Liverpool Street and Stratford - not London at all.
