Where are we now?
You've done a good job of hiding any clues... I think I see a Northern logo on that timetable poster...

The annoying thing is, I recognise it. I just don't know where it is. Given I recognise it, its probably on a line near me or one i go through commonly...

Bolton Upon Dearne? I know it has quite a bit of tarmaced area outside it

Nope...a clue would be that it is Northern, but it's not in Yorkshire.

Thought it must be, beyond Gainsborough i've only been to Brigg & Barnetby, so it had to be one of those i recognised it from!

Brigg must be the only station where the forecourt seems to have been sold off for horse grazing!

For the new one, I have no idea but looks northern. I'll take a guess at Burnley Manchester Road.

given the station gets used less than 2k times per year, might as well. No weekday service, only saturday trains!

'fraid not!

Spent a fair few times standing on the platform there, looking in that direction, so gotten to know it pretty well!

Where's this one then?

The boat could also be a red herring :P It isn't Duncraig either way.
