Class 90.

TOPS number 90 021.

Looks like that's at King's Cross..

This really isn't going to work. It's too specific. It doesn't help you made the train blindingly obvious...

I vote for a delete.

EDIT: It's in old Railfreight two-tone grey. It's probably owned by EWS now.

it's actually stored at Crewe EMD, I think its due to go to First ScotRail for the sleeper service - in fact, I think its at Toton now.

It's at York Worley, KX doesn't have a curved train hall.

I also think this won't work as there are literally thousands of stations and thousands of trains around the world there are not many trains in the UK, especially in recent times which have just seen the same locos being built but in different colours.

No, either do I.
British trains are blindingly easy, at least ones at the moment.

I prefer the term well travelled rather than Nerd, It is because I am well travelled that I know so many stations and trains. That's my story and I'm sticking to it! :P
