Title: And what has been changed here??
Post by: grahame on November 10, 2020, 07:28:38
And how many differences can you spot between this pair of pictures?  Where, roughly when, was it taken?

This may be something I repeat occasionally, but won't be a regular / frequent thing - lots of setup, and too much chance of same-old-change-again.  Something which is an has been regular - a reminder - is the Coffee Shop Tuesday Club (http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/24198) - set up during lockdown where perhaps half a dozen of us meet up for an hour's fireside screenside chat through matters transport.  There for any registered and posting member, and certainly carrying on through the current lockdown.  All welcome - a group that's small enough for everyone to get a word in and feel a part and welcome, but large enough for you to largely sit and watch from the sidelines if you prefer.

You are looking for 10 changes between the two pictures this time.

Not doing very well here. It's at Basingstoke but I can only spot 2 changes.

Well, I've found eight - which is probably about the limit, if only due to diminishing returns and things to do.

I think I can spot all 10, but at least 2 may be described as a single difference?

I know of two where what I described as "a change" comes in two zones separated by something in between that's not doctored (like the conductor rail in two sections removed at Waterloo), so I suspect you may still have one or two to find.

How are others doing?

I will look to posting a solution list this evening if all remains quiet

Found 8, could be counted as more if repititions counted.

I think I know the two you might be referring to ... so it's probably eight!

Just twigged the two that "are two", so think I have found them!

As someone who grew up with puzzle books where you would mark the changes in pencil, it seems more difficult if you can't!

What do you mean? Even I can manage the technology to do that on screen. And it does help to count up to big numbers like ten - which I've now reached. Though it's harder when the changes are not all in the same (or either) direction.

Eight - but I?m giving up there, I don?t want to check individual pieces of ballast...  ;D

Here are the changes:

Hopefully all significant enough to be visible - and indeed I think that hope has been met as one of our members emailed me with a picture highlighting them all (in a different way to I have by circling).

Still can't see the lower one to the left of the orange hi-vis man!

The lady has lost the mobile phone from her hand, and her bright blue shoes (yes, they really were) have become a dull orange.

Missed the shoes and the unit number. Stopped looking when I reached ten but I had double counted a couple of linked pairs: the 'Mind the Gap' markings being one of them. Very good Grahame - thanks.

Glad you enjoyed it ... will do another sometime.
