The Met Office has a new Beta web site. Can anyone say where their picture of a train in sleet was taken:

That link only takes you to the home page which doesn't have the picture on (not for me anyway)

I believe this is the link you would require:

Needless to say the picture on my link changed. The one at the top of your link is the same as I saw.

And I don't know where it is!

The sign on the right-hand platform appears to show directions to a school but even with maximum zoom I can't properly read the name.

I did a Google image search on the photo and can reveal the answer. It's London Road (Brighton).
