Doesn't No. 11 look suspiciously like Melksham, despite being a 158? In which case it's probably the 10:02 to Swindon on Tuesday 26th Feb (at a guess).

Definitely Melksham. No Taunton yet, I note.

8 out of 12 completed. Short of

1 - Month
6 - Month
7 - Month
9 - Location and month

Months remaining to be spoken for: January, March, June and November

I have made myself a very interesting task monitoring 2 sets of answers!   Please excuse any replies I have missed.

Tidying up - here are the 4 pictures not yet completely worked out:

1. Clan Line - Westbury, but no month yet given


6.    Yarmouth, Isle of Wight        CyclingSid  (but no month yet)


7. Bmblbzzz - Clifton Down - No month yet


9.

In that case 9 must be June - the only one with green leaves on the trees?

6 - was presumably taken in November, as you were on (in?) the IoW then. Obviously I'm not the only one capable of forgetting such things in only a few months.

Yes - so just January and March to allocate to the pictures of Clifton Down and Westbury, and the location for the June picture to be worked out.

The Clifton Down picture looks the very essence of a miserable January day.......

Correct

It was indeed taken in January.   I can't recall the weather - what I remember from that evening is the excellent company that was anything but miserable.  Really enjoyed it. Chez FoSBR» (Friends of Suburban Bristol Railways - site)


Which leaves just March for the picture of Westbury.

Hope this "which month" quiz has been bit of fun!
