A ponder for you, Livingston South has effectively been rebuilt for the Shotts Line wiring, brand new platforms/access paths but rebuilt in the same location. Would you class that as a new station?

There was a smell of wet paint on the footbridge.

I just need to visit Corfe Castle seeing as that is getting counted by the ORR, and carry on with my revisiting.

I have to doff my cap to you as I need Kenilworth but have got Corfe Castle. As it's the World Cup, can we treat stations like Panini stickers Mr Kite? Hahahaha

 

[Kite159]

Funny thing is that I have a vague memory as a youngster visiting Corfe Castle as part of a school trip making use of the steam railway to reach Swanage so I probably have used the station. I've certainly called there before as the Swanage line is one of the few I've visited on a UK Railtour a few years ago when they used to borrow 159s for a cheaper day trip

It's a funny one, platform 5 at Derby. Checking things like Realtimetrains and speaking to people, you'd think it was never used. However, I find I use it most times I go to Derby - and that's 3 or 4 times a year.

Having said that, last time I was there (30th June, which must now be the last time I'll use it), the people queueing in front of me to get off the train didn't realise which side the doors opened so we had a bit of a wait to get on the platform.

Isn't it Doleham International (Parkway) now?

How was the walk back to Three Oaks (just for future reference as I will be doing it next month)?

Looking at pictures of Doleham, it's now the second example I've seen of SouthEastern proclaiming the place to be a station on the signage along with BR arrows. (the other I've noticed was "Newhaven Town Station"). Do people really need to be informed it's a station, when BR arrows, tracks, etc make it quite clear? Sorry if OT.
