Penxance (England) - JayMac  2. Berlin (Germany) - plymothonian  3. Swansea (Wales) - brooklea  4. Świętokrzyska metro station, Warszawa. (Poland) - stuving  5.  6. Motherwell (Scotland) - stuving  7. Faro (Portugal) - Timmer  8. Milan Central (Italy) - stuving  9. Odense (Denmark) - eightonedee  10. (Ireland) - Chris from Nailsea - but where in Ireland?  |

William Huskisson MP▸ 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.

Some good and correct answers there which I have cut in to the original quiz. The quiz is a European one - 10 pictures in 10 different countries which is why I expect some to be very difficult in addition to the dark.

Sometimes, perhaps, the obvious answer is the right one - 8. Milan Centrale.
