Looked like Sunbury to me - but then I've never been by train there - but I have been there - never been to Westbury at all hence I assumed sunbury
so if aint photoshopped how is the most meaningfull clue so blurred
(note - I put my nice expensive camera onto auto to shoot everything - I'm crap at photography)

For me, glasses on or glasses off it looks like a 'W' at the start of the station name sign. And being used to Westbury station I'm 99.9% certain that's the location. Just for reference, a 'Sunbury' station sign would have a red and gold ' SWT▸ ' flash on the left hand side and not a FGW▸ purple lower quadrant. I know....... anal  Shoulda gone to SpecSavers!  |

I'm just a too familiar commuter / worked out trains are best way to get study done person rather than someone who notices signe on platforms although - I was at crewe tonight at 2100 wondering why SWT were there - then I realised it was EMT» |

By the way ... I'm rather surprised that the piece of apparently unattended luggage featured in A wasn't "removed or destroyed by the security services" ... There are lots of them at Melksham Station.  |

Do I win a prize? If any of them are correct that is!
A. Melksham
B. Salisbury
C. Berth 1 Portsmouth CFP (Ship Norman Arrow)
D. Paris St. Lazaire Concourse - A GUESS!
E. Cosham
F. Le Havre
G. Paris St. Lazaire
H. Westbury
So it would be A, H, B, E, C, F, G, D

Order is correct, Ollie ... and 7 of the 8 locations. And you admitted that (D) was a guess Btline - very close but don't think I didn't notice one of the letters left out. And to confirm - the only use of photoshop was to reduce size / crop / sharpen. No funny stuff with signs to turn one name into another. If it's blurred, blame the photographer and the low res I posted at. I've just arrived near to "final destination" where I'm working tomorrow. Been on the road rail for much of today. Where am I?  P.S. Luggage - mine. I hauled that ruddy thing all the way and now have a sore back ... 20 Perl programming books, 2 laptop computers, shirts, and other things ... |
