There was a post about this a while ago. The deal was that Sampford Courtenay is not in the National Rail system database so it was decided that Crediton would be displayed twice instead, making up the correct number of stops.

Of course when looked at literally, it has some unintended meanings.

Just out of curiosity, what happened to bring about the lack of a #1?

All votes in by 1900 next Sunday (17th) please.

Cheers.

Edit: Please note that due to an administrative error, there is no Photo 01 this week.

I like 2, it's brilliant.

When we get to find out who the person who posted number 3 is (not that it's obvious or anything) I'd like to know whether they drew it in Paint or whether it's actually a sign from somewhere.

Although I can't find any evidence of such a rule, it always used to be the case that entrants were not permitted to show which photo was theirs in any way. Picture #3 can be found in one member's signature.

Well done atomicdanny

Also many thanks to the people who voted for my shot - I believe that is a new PB for me in POTW

The shot was taken last summer while we were reversing at Castleford (on a Leeds - Knottingley service IIRC) - I noticed it as the driver came out of the cab and decided a picture had to be taken

P.S. I'm intrigued as to where #3 was taken
