Just heard on the local Beeb that GWR (Great Western Railway) are running a "Spot the Station" quiz on Twitter.
Shooting fish in a barrel stuff for forum members?

It would quite possibly have been, had I been able to log in to Twitter.  I can't, so it wasn't.

William Huskisson MP (Member of Parliament) was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830.  Many more have died in the same way since then.  Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.

"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner."  Discuss.
