I was on an HST on its way up from Cornwall today and it was also in the (very unusually) same condition. Wonder if Laira has a problem with its carriage washer as usually sets off Laira are in immaculate condition.Title: Re: Where have I been?

2 pubs, cafe, plenty of walks available including riverside walks, you can walk up and down the old Incline railway. On a Side Calstock is the ONLY Ex Southern Railway station still open in Cornwall. Title: Re: Where have I been? Post by: InTheSidings on August 12, 2016, 07:25:38 ..... Calstock is the ONLY Ex Southern Railway station still open in Cornwall. Gunnislake gets the "QI buzzer" ;D Title: Re: Where have I been? Post by: grahame on August 12, 2016, 07:46:35 ..... Calstock is the ONLY Ex Southern Railway station still open in Cornwall. Gunnislake gets the "QI buzzer" ;D Having been resited in 1994. Sadly now a modern platform. Happily with buses able to interchange there. Sadly I think the bus (or some of them) may have gone ... certainly not First anymore. (http://www.wellho.net/pix/bqz9.jpg) Title: Re: Where have I been?

The current gunnislake station isn't the Southern station. Title: Re: Where have I been? Post by: InTheSidings on August 12, 2016, 12:49:14 .....

Which was precisely my point! And Grahame's too. I'll concede if you've never watched QI, you wouldn't know the buzzer (I've since thought it's actually a klaxon) is sounded for an answer that might at first seem obvious and correct, but often incorrect due to a little known fact, common misconception or technicality.
