It is, John ... welcome to the forum - bull's eye with your first post.  Excellent knowledge, excellent research or your local station?

I?m somewhat surprised that I?ve been to every station featured, bar one.  Even that one I have passed through.


Oh sorry this isn?t part of the quiz - Ferryside is the missing one.  ;D
