Just a thought for these quizzes. Would it be possible to put the correctly identified locations against the photos at the start of the thread? When the thread goes into a third or fourth page it gets harder to keep going back and forth to see which ones are left, or in my case, see if you can recognise the place even with the answer!! It would be especially handy for those looking on the move and without the benefit of a large PC screen.
Just my twopenneth...

20. Bristol Temple Meads. Either there, or that pigeon (who is known to me personally) was off his home ground.  |

William Huskisson MP▸ 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.

The little blighter.  Bath Spa, then - it's got to be a station with a curved platform.  |

20. Correct. Bath Spa. Chris from Nailsea. Incidentally, another flying pest, a seagull, was busy attacking one of the clear polythene bin liners that hang from the wall on the platform. He successfully tore the liner to get at some food within. Not sure the powers that be foresaw this problem when they started installing these new 'bins'. What's wrong with a proper bin? Oh yeah, the remote chance that a bomb will be placed in one.  Meanwhile the lack of proper bins causes a pest problem. |

Hmm. As an aside: the issue of seagulls versus clear plastic bags without mesh cage protection has been an issue with the Heart of Wessex Community Rail Partnership over the station at Weymouth for some time now. Julian Crow knows all about it. |
