All pictures I took myself - but off home ground.   Please guess just one at time, but when I've come back and said "yay" or "nay", you may have another go without waiting for the customary 24 hours!

Yes, indeed .. and remember there's no 24 hour rule on this "away" thread.   Do you know another?

I've seen a couple before and others I have no idea. So I'll let others have a go.

I must confess the Mk1 rolling stock of the previous EMUs (Electric Multiple Unit) that ran the branch to Lymington gave me a clue.

VERY dark.  Think you may have the wrong letter (but none is Zurich anyway!)

I think f is in Northern Ireland, but not having been there, I don't know whereabouts.

I'm not going to deny that.  But it was supposed to look like a 150 2xx and confuse ...  Wink
