Apex (Advanced Purchase Excursion (fare)) Plaza

So it is - I see it several times a week but its amazing how you don't recognise a snap shot out of context

I jumped for reading just knowing where you are based and where SWT (South West Trains) went through - hence expanding to bracknell/winnersh etc

I was going off the departures - I have never been to southampton by train so cut me some slack here!

Since I don't know how many are going to be up at this hour - let me go research

I can't see the pictures on this one either  Sad
I assume there is more than one way to upload pictures as when some people put pictures on I can see them, and then sometimes, like this time, I can't.. I wonder who many other people it affects?
