Great, so that's a Class 450. I'm pretty sure that's Liss, but I'm having a go on Hilsea.

Not really a 450... and not either of those stations.

It's a 458 which suggests the Windsor/Reading/Weybridge via Chertsey lines, but a photo of one in an unusual place would be a good trick...

I'm going to stick with their regular stomping ground though, and have an educated guess at Bracknell because the fence matches.

Yes, I was hoping the scenery on the south side of the station would throw people off more than it seemingly did!

I was racking my brain for 5 track stations in Leftie's area before I remembered Church Fenton had a through road.

Lets give this one a go then!

Not many places with wires in Wales! Let's see if you multi-line roving types can get this one.
