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.

Is a clue on the side of the train, or would that be too easy?
Plymouth....

Educated guess by looking at the date stamp and then looking at your posting history for around that date, for some clues as to where you may have been. That's allowable resourcefulness rather than cheating, right?

I was actually on my way to Melksham, to join the excellent carnival procession there on that afternoon - see http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop/index.php?topic=13900.msg157215#msg157215 Debatable - but I did deliberately leave the date stamp in the picture, so I'll give you the benefit of any doubt. You think his technical expertise stretches to setting the date on a camera? I'll remember that, next time you ask me to help you with posting something ...

...or you want an avatar resizing... For some reason I seem to have photos of that particular HST▸ in Swindon, Cheltenham, Gloucester, Newbury and Exeter. But not Plymouth!

Similarly, I have pictures of the Devon & Cornwall Community Rail Partnership unit at Bristol Temple Meads, but nowhere in ... err, Devon or Cornwall.

EXACLTY as it should be - advertising around the area. Please label up a 153 as "TransWilts" ... then run it everywhere and anywhere - and only occasionally on the TransWilts!

How much does a set of vinyls cost? The only reference I can find is Each set of vinyl stickers cost about ^40,000. at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Rail_Class_357and that's for a 4 coach train. It also says "citation needed"!

I've found by use of Google that a full wrap for a double decker bus will cost ^2500 + vat. Would a train really be 16 times the cost of doing a bus? Not that much bigger.
