He paused during a three course meal to take that one!  Grin Grin

Same day as a slap-up lunch I think, but that snap was taken at 0953 27-01-2014 on a diverted HST▸ (High Speed Train (Inter City class 43 125 units)) on the way down to pick up the Pullman.

19 - Edgware road underground (Circle and District line platforms)?

Sorry, no. So close though. Have another go!

Not thinking straight.  I knew it was Paddington so no idea why I wrote Edgware road..  Electric train guessed correctly meanwhile :-)

A bumper selection of rail locations (including tram/metro) from across England.

As usual. One guess each please for the first 24 hours.

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post (a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London), depending on context) 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.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
