thetrout Out and About Trouting (A Quiz)

I am going to take a guess and would say number 8 is London Victoria

It is indeed; London Victoria

Is no. 9 Westbury?

Sorry, No. Feel free to have another go

[BandHcommuter]

10 is Westbury

[Fourbee]

I'll have a punt on number 7 being London Bridge. NR^» (Network Rail - home page) signage, looks like some building work going on and there is a "bridge" exit IIRC^▸ (if I recall/remember/read correctly).

[LiskeardRich]

9- Salisbury?

2. Farringdon.  (Thameslink side.)

View of the southward extension towards the Snow Hill end.  The brickwork section shown is below the original underground station building, they weren't allowed to open it out for some reason so each platform has a massive brick bridge pier at about the 4 car point of a 12 car train, leaving a pretty narrow platform with this 'passageway' behind it.

Paul

Correct. Farringdon. Assuming we're talking about the Snow Hill in Birmingham then wrong direction everything else you've said is about right though On the right side of the passageway there is indeed a rather narrow platform

I think the reference is to Snow Hill tunnel which is immediately to the south of Farringdon Station. In which case it is the opposite direction to Birmingham! So he is right.

Good Shout. London Bridge is correct. Taken on one of the through platforms

[thetrout]

9- Salisbury?

Correct. Salisbury it is. In fact that FGW^▸ (First Great Western) 158 is the same 158 that is in Picture 10.


Well 24 hours has been and gone so the rest are up for grabs

The Network SouthEast clock in #13 is bugging me. Could it possibly be East Croydon again?

If not, am I warm? And again, if not, could I have a clue?

Not even close I'm afraid...

A Clue Sir? sure... Station is served by the same TOC^▸ (Train Operating Company) that serves the station in Piccy 3

I never get bored of the ticking of these clocks standing on the platform even if they did go haywire now and again. I liked the design as well.

Seeing it go from 09:59:59 to 10:00:00 was wierdly satisfying as well with the clunking as the numbers changed in sequence.

3. Shenfield?

Fraid Not

3. Upminster - confirmed using GSV

However the clue that suggested it was that the platform where the photograph was taken from has a different electrification system to that alongside, and it looks to be LU style DC^▸ (Direct Current); and LU and NXEA^▸ (National Express East Anglia) meet like this at Upminster, where the Romford shuttle service terminates on the north of the station alongside the LU lines.

Yes, Upminster

You're also right in that the picture is of a Class 321 on the Upminster - Romford Shuttle.

So Just 1, 6 & 15 Left to get folks... Anyone need any clues?
