Just updated the pictures with their relevant location. Sadly I had to wait for the technical expert to return to remember how to do this.

Just two left to get - 23 and 42.

No clues this evening.

Enjoy.

Picture 23.

Is some kind of sculpture on the railway network, and going by some of my questions, it could be north south east or west.

You can be sure it just seems to be hanging around at a station........................and yes that was some kind of clue..where else would you buy a ticket...lol

Picture 42.

Is in fact a bay end platform....................and yes, that was another clue

Thank you for the Acton Man, that takes me back, the amount of my mum's talc I used to get his wet suit on, only to find out he could not swim.

Thank god  for Patrick Duffy, "The Man From Atlantis".

Now back to the quiz.......
Picture 23.

Clue Number 1. It is in a railway station, not outside the main railway premises.

Clue Number 2. It is hanging on the wall, along with other items.


Clue Number 3. It is on the Southern railway network.

Clue Number 4. If you go onto You Tube.... you will see that I drove a FGW▸ (First Great Western) HST▸ (High Speed Train (Inter City class 43 125 units)) football special 43124 43148.....(actor Fees will apply).

Picture Number 42. Well what can I say................It is still a Bay End
