For goodness' sake, don't let grahame hear you saying that!  And good shout, vacman: I got 2, 3 and 4, but I was struggling a bit with the others! |

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.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

The secret is to look at the trains in the stations, thats the only way I guessed Gatwick.

Well, vacman, it's still a good shout, because I did exactly that, and I still couldn't work it out! Lots of long red trains? I'm not used to seeing that, here in Somerset! By the way, what's the train on your avatar? Looks like a Cornish branch livery, but forgive my ignorance, I don't get chance to travel so far west these days! Chris  |

I've been having difficulty with No. 4 for years. You'll note it's shown without a train; *with* a train would have made it a much more unusual picture and harder Seriously - it is a difficult one to recognise from the air, especially at that zoom level. |

Wessex received them as extra units from FNW. They then refurbished them with Champan seats(like the 150 ones) and painted them into a blue livery in the same style as the 150's with local place vinyls. One was named The Looe Valley Something and the other The St Ives Something. They operate all over the FGW▸ area though not just in Cornwall. |

Sorry qprrule, they came from Central Trains! they were the last two units in full regional railways livery (i.e. the links at the end of the blue line). The picture is on the St Ives branch. |
