10 is Saltford, between Oldfield Park and Keynsham.
I feel a bit of a fraud putting this in, because I've never been there, but I used the signal number (BL1937) to get the general vicinity, then Google Maps did the rest.

Curses ! I was on the right track (quite literally !) - there is a very similar green bridge, in a cutting, at Corsham. Close examination on Street View showed it not be that one............I should have followed the line a bit further. |

7 Correctly located to British Isles. Following up on this, close examination of the photograph shows a unit number is 29127. Wikipedia has an entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IE_29000_Class and that fits with the British Isles. But I've no knowledge of railway stations on the island of Ireland so I'll let others identify the location. |

Yes - no fraud, especially as other have had plenty of time. I probably should have fuzzed the signal number. Three left to identify 3  6  7  |

These photo quizzes used to be much easier when Graham would leave the GPS metadata in the photos. He doesn't do that any more. Shame.  |

3 is a cruise ship, probably a smaller one, possibly Fred Olsen. Oh did you want the port? - well it's not Wellington (New Zealand) but a smaller city somewhere.

Yes, about half the population of Wellington. Not Fred Olson, but, agreed now one of the huge ships. Now - bear in mind that they are all my pictures from the last 18 months or so and that I have posted pretty openly about where we have been. |
