Would I be right in thinking that all 5 are of the same place?

True, 5 is also Taunton. Not 100% on the other two.

I rather think, chaps, that our administrator is teasing me a bit on this one: I know that I was definitely standing right next to him when he took at least three of these photos.  Embarrassed

Does that give you a clue?   Roll Eyes Cheesy Grin

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.

There is indeed a bit of a "tease" on this one ... all five are Taunton. It struck me as to just how many diverse views there are / were floating around of a single station.
