9- Salisbury?

Correct. Salisbury it is. In fact that FGW▸ (First Great Western) 158 is the same 158 that is in Picture 10.


Not bad to get that correct! Was an educated guess of where FGW 158s go and SWT▸ (South West Trains) 158/9s go!

6. Doncaster
15. Swanley

1. Chingford: Right County... Wrong TOC▸ (Train Operating Company) ;-) So I'll say warm...
6. Doncaster: Luke Warm... You can get direct trains from Doncaster to that station
15. Swanley: Also Luke Warm

But if I told you that every picture was taken on the same day with the exception of 6 which was taken on Thursday last week (14/02/2013)... That might make it a little easier perhaps? ;-)
