Yes, I rather thought 5 was Taunton - but with my track record, that's not sufficient certainty for me to post that as my answer.  Roll Eyes Shocked Grin

I seem to make rather a lot of visits to Taunton, so it will crop up quite often in these quizzes

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.
