Not really, most people i figure on this forum are British to some extent. If someone from france was to post a picture of a french railway station only people who live in france or someone who knows a lot about french railways would be able to get it whilst everyone else sits idly by.
The game has to lean towards one particular country for it to work.

That's incredibly hypocritical... Since a lot of users, like Purno, are from The Netherlands.jpmaster wrote:Not really, most people i figure on this forum are British to some extent.

If it's a British Station, then you should have that in the topic title.
And I'm gonna take a guess... Warrington?

Oh yeah, let each country have it's own "guess the station"-topic...
Such a game is undoable at an international forum.

s***... Wigan North-Western?
Am I in the right area? I'm discounting the South-East because that's a 3xx class and as such probably has a pantograph. I'm thinking North West - near?

Wild stab in the dark, since it's obviously a terminating station, i'll go for Kings Lynn.
Since I've only been as far south as Birmingham, I can't say i've ever been down there....i'm sure it's a lovely place and all that....Kings Lynn that is, not Birmingham....too much concrete, and the experience of New Street Station put me off for life...I think i'm off topic a bit here
Not to worry...

Just a little - and visit New Street now, they've fixed it up.
Ipswich?
EDIT: Not necessarily a terminus, since there are several tracks like that at Wigan and Warrington (hence my guess), but these are main through routes on the Cross-Country.

Newcastle?
I think if it's NE, like where you live, it'll be one of four - Berwick, Newcastle, Durham or Darlington.

Your're on the right lines though.
I'll give u a clue, look at the train, and think about the route it takes when in the North East

Nope, Derby's East Mids I think...past Yorkshire anyway.....the station is somewhere in the North East, thats as big as a clue as you guys are getting....jpmaster wrote:its not Derby is it?
FYI, the North East streches from Berwick to Darlington, and from Saltburn to Haltwhistle...
And now i've said too much
