Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: Mookiemoo on July 10, 2009, 21:10:02 8 is worcester
Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: ReWind on July 10, 2009, 21:12:09 Sorry, both incorrect!
Paignton has colour light signalling, and no freight sidings Worcester does not have 2 through lines Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: Chris from Nailsea on July 10, 2009, 21:21:21 I think 8 is Cheltenham - Spa, and Racecourse?
Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: ReWind on July 10, 2009, 21:22:48 Sorry Chris, can't get a Turbo from Cheltenham Spa!!!
Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: Chris from Nailsea on July 10, 2009, 21:27:37 Well, you wouldn't want to, would you? ;)
Fair enough: that will teach me not to do my research via the Tehran Times and Malay Mail ... ::) Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: rogerw on July 10, 2009, 21:37:00 6 is Melksham, again!
Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: JayMac on July 10, 2009, 21:51:23 9) Romsey
Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: Chris from Nailsea on July 10, 2009, 22:14:45 Having consulted The Racing Post, I'm now going to venture to suggest that 8 might be Newbury. :P ::) ;D
Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: JayMac on July 10, 2009, 22:20:57 No 7 is really taxing me. I'm tempted to say Truro, but for the 2 platforms thing.
Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: ReWind on July 10, 2009, 22:26:55 All are correct!
6) is Melksham 8) is Newbury 9) is Romsey Just 7 and 10 to go now!! Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: rogerw on July 10, 2009, 22:28:33 7 is Lostwithiel and could 10 be SEvern Tunnel Junction?
Title: Re: Quiz 2 Post by: ReWind on July 10, 2009, 22:29:35 Both correct Roger!
