8 I'm going to guess is somewhere near Cockwood Harbour, between Exeter and Dawlish...? Or failing that there's just a chance it could be around Llanelli/Pembrey.

As far as any of the others go I'm stumped. Especially by what looks like a mark 1 interior but with SWT▸ (South West Trains) upholstery. Unless...  Huh
