Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: LiskeardRich on June 07, 2016, 23:01:53 5. Plymouth Sidings opposite Platform 8. I took such a near identical photo today, I'd have said my photo had been used, were it not for the fact I haven't plugged my camera into any device yet! ;D Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 07, 2016, 23:14:09 5. Plymouth Sidings opposite Platform 8. I took such a near identical photo today, I'd have said my photo had been used, were it not for the fact I haven't plugged my camera into any device yet! ;D Yes, you're correct Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Western Pathfinder on June 07, 2016, 23:15:59 No.2 Cheltnham .
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 07, 2016, 23:18:46 No.2 Cheltnham . Err no - it isn't. I'm guessing you may have thought of the right place but put in the name of the wrong place. Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Western Pathfinder on June 07, 2016, 23:20:20 Quite so what a silly thing to do!.
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Merthyr Imp on June 07, 2016, 23:36:45 6. - Ardwick.
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 07, 2016, 23:58:14 6. - Ardwick. corrects Quite so what a silly thing to do!. So the correct answer is .... ;) Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: paul7575 on June 08, 2016, 00:04:22 1. Guildford?
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 08, 2016, 00:19:35 Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Chris from Nailsea on June 08, 2016, 00:22:45 I am sure that Western Pathfinder, although slightly confused as to his path, was suggesting that 2. is Chippenham. :P ::) ;D
I'll gift him that one - if only because I have no idea about any of the others! :-[ Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Worcester_Passenger on June 08, 2016, 02:57:31 7 Bromsgrove.
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 08, 2016, 04:56:36 7 Bromsgrove. That's correct - just 3, 4 and 8 to go Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Timmer on June 08, 2016, 05:58:37 8, complete guess, Swindon?
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 08, 2016, 06:44:20 Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Western Pathfinder on June 08, 2016, 09:15:42 Thanks for the gift of the correct answer I was in fact waiting for the next 24hr period to start.
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 08, 2016, 09:31:26 Thanks for the gift of the correct answer I was in fact waiting for the next 24hr period to start. You have the major credit - we all knew you meant Chippenham. Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Merthyr Imp on June 08, 2016, 23:21:20 4. Two possibilities come to mind depending on how recent the photo is.
Manchester? Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 09, 2016, 04:20:59 4. Two possibilities come to mind depending on how recent the photo is. Manchester? Yes indeed. Picture taken at aroud 15:30 on Tuesday Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 09, 2016, 06:31:27 Just the one remaining

Yes indeed. Picture taken at aroud 15:30 on Tuesday I must admit it's not a piece of Manchester I'm familiar with, but I thought it must be either there or Birmingham which was my first thought. Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Surrey 455 on June 09, 2016, 22:56:00 Haven't a clue about the remaining pic but there's building work going on. So going to take a random stab at London Bridge. I'm sure there's lots of other stations having work done at the moment but London Bridge is the only one I can think of.
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Puffing Billy on June 10, 2016, 21:03:43 Exeter Central?
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 11, 2016, 06:03:20 Exeter Central? Alas, no ... this one's really difficult ... all pictures taken by myself in the last 18 months, and you need to bear in mind that I occasionally travel quite a distance. A quick look and I've noted that I did blog this picture last year ... rail stuff archived via http://www.wellho.net/resources/Z501.html and http://www.wellho.net/resources/Z406.html Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Puffing Billy on June 14, 2016, 14:45:39 Nottingham, then?
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: patch38 on June 14, 2016, 15:05:23 For some reason it brings to mind the Star Ferry Terminal in Hong Kong but... your archive gives it away: New York?
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: grahame on June 14, 2016, 16:50:40 New York, yes. World Trade Center, PATH station, about a year ago
Title: Re: Pieces of eight Post by: Chris from Nailsea on June 14, 2016, 23:16:27 Obviously not Taunton: no 'recent building work' there. :P
