Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: Timmer on October 28, 2024, 21:52:01 7 Faro
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: Chris from Nailsea on October 28, 2024, 21:55:03 I think 3. is Bristol Temple Meads. ::)
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: eightonedee on October 28, 2024, 22:21:42 9 - Odense, Denmark (I think)
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: Chris from Nailsea on October 28, 2024, 22:31:12 10. Ireland. (That's as close as I can get) :-[
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: Chris from Nailsea on October 29, 2024, 00:45:58 I feel I should know 6. - but I can't put a name to it. ::)
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: stuving on October 29, 2024, 01:03:08 I feel I should know 6. - but I can't put a name to it. ::) Motherwell? Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: Chris from Nailsea on October 29, 2024, 01:14:13 I feel I should know 6. - but I can't put a name to it. ::) Motherwell? No: that's not at all what I was thinking. :-X Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: grahame on October 29, 2024, 07:58:39 Some good and correct answers there which I have cut in to the original quiz. The quiz is a European one - 10 pictures in 10 different countries which is why I expect some to be very difficult in addition to the dark.
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: brooklea on October 29, 2024, 08:14:50 I think 3. maybe Swansea, but not certain.
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: stuving on October 29, 2024, 12:59:18 Sometimes, perhaps, the obvious answer is the right one - 8. Milan Centrale.
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: GBM on October 29, 2024, 15:54:08 Melksham and Taunton HAVE to be in there somewhere :P
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: grahame on October 29, 2024, 16:03:36 Melksham and Taunton HAVE to be in there somewhere :P Oops (https://www.wellho.info/pix/cbq11.jpg) (https://www.wellho.info/pix/cbq12.jpg) Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: plymothian on October 29, 2024, 19:56:59 2 might be Berlin.
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: stuving on October 29, 2024, 23:26:31 4. Świętokrzyska metro station, Warszawa.
5. looks a bit difficult, doesn't it? Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: stuving on October 30, 2024, 17:06:26 I thought when I saw that Irish one that we've seen that before, in a trip report or a quiz or both. And I think the same place did come up in May's quiz, though seen the next morning (but still with all the lights on) from further back.
(http://www.wellho.net/pix/trq105.jpg) In which case it's Athlone - but the only earlier photo I can find was not the same one, it was taken the same night but from the far end backtheway.

In which case it's Athlone - but the only earlier photo I can find was not the same one, it was taken the same night but from the far end backtheway. Yes it is Athlone - stayed there several days so not sure if it was the same night ... Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: grahame on October 31, 2024, 15:26:38 4. Świętokrzyska metro station, Warszawa. 5. looks a bit difficult, doesn't it? Yep - you have done a miracle with others but this one is - very - difficult, and the only one left: 5. (https://www.wellho.info/pix/cbq05.jpg) It's a station I have mentioned a couple of times ... Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: eightonedee on October 31, 2024, 22:21:50 Is this in NW Spain? On the FEVE narrow gauge?
Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: grahame on November 01, 2024, 05:11:38 Is this in NW Spain? On the FEVE narrow gauge? Yes, it is ... as far NW as you can get if you exclude the terminus at Ferrol which it is clearly not! Title: Re: Clocks Back Quiz Post by: stuving on November 03, 2024, 19:17:08 Is this in NW Spain? On the FEVE narrow gauge? Yes, it is ... as far NW as you can get if you exclude the terminus at Ferrol which it is clearly not! I thought getting the right line was the hard bit, and after that it's just a matter of looking up the relevant trip report. OK, you need to know where to find that - and the same picture was posted there two years ago, identified as San Xoán.
