I'll give you that. It is actually the main entrance to the Hilton Hotel at Paddington, walk through the lobby and lounge and you can access the station via The Lawn.

Sorry, no.

To reiterate and add to the clue for no. 20. The artwork can be found in the waiting room at a FGW▸ (First Great Western) terminus. However it is not a terminus for the other operators who use this particular station.

The only station I can think of that meets that criteria is Hereford - FGW▸ (First Great Western) terminus but through station for ATW▸ (Arriva Trains Wales (former TOC▸ (Train Operating Company))).  Hold on, it's also a terminus for LM▸ (London Midland - recent franchise) isn't it?

There is another one.....(actually I can think of three more FGW▸ (First Great Western) 'termini' that are through stations for other operators, but the artwork in pic 20 is only at one of them!)
