Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: Chris from Nailsea on September 21, 2024, 20:36:49 2. Wareham. Acknowledged - it's Wareham, not Taunton. ::) Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: johnneyw on September 21, 2024, 21:37:59 11 has a look of Mangotsfield about it.
Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: Chris from Nailsea on September 21, 2024, 22:05:23 Hmm. :-X
I disagree: different stonework and different alignment? My own feeling was that it could be the disused part of the Kemble branch line - but I don't think it's that, either. ::) Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: Timmer on September 21, 2024, 22:31:34 3 Bath Spa
Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: Chris from Nailsea on September 21, 2024, 22:44:14 Good shout, Timmer!
I wasn't convinced initially, but looking at it, you're right. I'm hopeless at these picture quiz topics. ::) Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: brooklea on September 21, 2024, 23:53:19 10. Taunton

Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: GBM on September 22, 2024, 06:42:09 5, Newquay perhaps

Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: Oxonhutch on September 22, 2024, 08:01:01 8: Melksham :)
Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: grahame on September 22, 2024, 08:03:08 5 St Erth, 6 Barry Island, 7 Newquay, 11 Kemble (Tetbury branch platform). All correct, Richard - and I am about to go back and edit the original thread to put in all the other correct answers given - Taunton, Trapani, Worcester, Bath Spa, Wareham and Westbury. Arithmetic suggests that there are two still to identify. STOP PRESS - just one 8: Melksham :) Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: grahame on September 22, 2024, 08:36:37 Just one remaining - the one I suspected would take longest. Impressed as ever that my obscure western Europe picture was identified, but no. 12 is at another level.
12. (https://www.wellho.info/pix/dus12.jpg) My headline suggested "campaign for new / reopened services" and indeed the Newquay picture is already being brought back into life with the mid Devon metro. The Westbury platform is being campaigned for and desperately needed whenever anything is running late (BBC interview - "Was the last train you caught on time" - answer "Yes it was when I caught it, but it was late into Westbury because it had to wait outside for a platform" in July) I dream of the Wareham platform becoming the Swanage Bay again. Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: grahame on September 22, 2024, 16:44:40 As I suspected - very much the hardest picture on this thread. Here are another couple of pictures close by

Title: Re: Campaign for new reopened services - from disused platforms where Post by: Chris from Nailsea on September 23, 2024, 22:07:11 Easy for you to say. ::)
