Looking at the line between Busy Liars and Divested Extras, it'd be nice if the station at No Rich Adjunct could reopen, perhaps with a light rail branch to Want Chord.

Part of SWR» (South Western Railway - about) though .. not really TransWilts.   

I could suggest running our loop from My Rose via Eagle Shit to On the rampant locust ... and that could end Awfley in the future - but I think that would be Awfley good!

I've spotted a couple of errors that suggest that the process was computer assisted, perhaps to a high degree. With Yak Tram for Marks Tey, and Dr. of Rock for Rochford, it looks as if the names were keyed in - with some typos - as the first step. It would then not be difficult to do a search for words (and perhaps names too) in the letter collections that produces, from which to pick solutions. At least that would do the bulk of them, allowing a bit of human creativity for those with no good choices or where someone spotted a particularly good one. I hope that spoils noone's illusions!

The next time I go to the station previously known as Bourne End, I will try to avoid all CCTV▸ (Closed Circuit Tele Vision). Wink
