Yes it is. Good beer, delivered in the most sensible way imaginable.

1. is Utrecht Centraal, an example of the showy architecture that has become de rigueur for stations these days in parts of Europe (certainly in the Netherlands).

I don’t know why you can’t see them, WP! They’re hosted at https://bristolrailcampaign.org.uk/

Can you see other images hosted there?

I can't see the images either, although all others elsewhere are good.

Perhaps its because I am using Safari. When I've got time I'll change to Chrome and see if its better.

I don't think it's a browser issue, as I can see them on my iPad and also on Firefox and Chrome...

To clear out two easy wins (because each is shown by signs in the pictures!) - 12 is Berlin East (or Ostbahnhof) and 13 is Berlin Airport (Flughafen) - just shows how useful my 52-year old German O level has been!

8. Steinerne Renne station.

William Huskisson MP▸ (Member of Parliament, or Mile Post - a method of measuring the railway in miles and chains from a starting point - usually London, depending on context) 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.
