Yes you're correct Brucey - BRI» (Bristol Temple Meads - next trains) - BTH» (Bath Spa - next trains) Tickets.

Also CfN... I'm afraid that rogue traffic cone has found it's way back up there. I'm due to walk past there shortly so will take a pic if I remember... Unless we're thinking of 2 completely different places!

I'll leave the quiz open for another 48 hours before revealing all the unanswered answers and therefore claiming all the cake Wink

Well, to be fair, I was only passing through, on the road between Bath Spa railway station and Bath bus station on 22 April, but I didn't see any traffic cones on any of the traffic lights, on a very quick inspectionTongue

However, there are a lot of students in Bath ...  Roll Eyes

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.

Oh back in the days when I may have been one of them..................... Perhaps the less said about that the better maybe ;-)

Forgot to say... Some excellent spots there Smiley A few of those I didn't think people would get so easily. I guess as grahame once said, we're a knowledgeable bunch Smiley

Hear are some clues...!

Suprised also that paul7755 hasn't got Number 1 Wink and that relex109 hasn't got the coffee one... (13 - on second thoughts the number 13 may have put him off Wink )

You can get to all the stations in pictures 1, 8, 16 and 17 on the same train Smiley

14 has toilets that are free of charge to use... the almost immediately adjacent station will relieve you of 30p (no pun intended)

15 is not served by any National Rail service, despite what the sign would have you believe!

3 serves trains to Barcelona and Madrid. But you could also go to France from their too, although it is quicker to change trains at Barcelona ;-)

I don't quite see the correlation between students and traffic cones...  Grin

Not sure of the station, but I believe a station on the Central Line is used for replacement bus services to/from as it would have been, National Express East Anglia, now Greater Anglia services.

Newbury Park would be the place I was thinking of, just couldn't remember the name of the station it was.

I'd concur with Newbury Park. That was certainly where I was dumped transported to by coach after a journey from Norwich to Ingatestone following my holiday in Norfolk last year.

Is number 8 Shenfield? A Class 315 would mean it is between London and Shenfield, and 5 platforms rules out most stations.
