rts... not sure whether that was a guess, seeing as TJ has already correctly identified 15 as Newton Abbot. It appears that someone has nicked the 'House' from the end of that canopy sign. It is indeed a close up of the awning above the entrance to 'South Devon House' aka Newton Abbot station main building.

Feel free to have a guess of another pic.  Wink

Oh, and... 'HST (High Speed Train) training for a pasty'. Is that what you get if you pass?  Grin
Lol, I hadn't actually spotted TJs post. The pasty was self-funded fuel for the run back up to Birmingham.
