Guess the Station...

[ainsworth74]

I pretty sure I know which one you've broken Which means I'm totally lost

 

[4SRKT]

Yes, I'm probably a little out of order with that one: It's probably the third or fourth most familiar railway location to me anywhere in the world (my avatar shot is taken there), but that don't make it easy for others! Maybe this, which also breaks the same rule, but is probably easier to recognise:

belfast central?

belfast central?

Belfast Central is correct. That shot's nearly 20 years old and it's changed quite a bit since then tho, although the last 80 class DEMU is still hanging on by its fingertips

I'll try and dig out some more GB ones: I've got hundreds of unscanned photos in a box upstairs which I need to get around to digitising.

EDIT: from the traction list at the end of your post you've clearly been DEMU bashing in NI class465. Any ideas where the other pic was taken?

The Rules

• You may only post a picture of a station if you guess the station before correctly or if somebody passes their turn on.
• The photo must have been taken in England, Scotland or Wales.
• The photo must contain a train which operates/operated on the Network Rail area unless the easement in rule 4 applies. (so excludes any Light Rail, LUL & Preserved Railways)
• EASEMENT TO RULE 3 -- However if the station has an Interchange with a NR station, this is allowed.
• The actual name of the station should not be in the photo or filename - destination blinds should be covered.

Amendment to rule 2 = This now includes Northern Ireland.
Amendment to rule 3 = photos are permitted where there is no train present

Hopefully that will now open it up a bit further.

Uh-oh! When I saw the latest post was by transportphoto, I thought I might have been in for a telling off!

That's the one.

Also, you need to post a phot soon, as you correctly identified Belfast Central.

class465,
It's your turn to post a photo if you've got one... if not then please post that you haven't!

 

[4SRKT]

Snap!

 

[transportphoto]

I am going to keep the ball rolling with a picture because Class465 has gone offline.

You haven't got much to go on!!

Jesus, that's tough. A 153 and a bit of platform? Can't even see the livery of the train.

You're wrong with the super sprinter!

 

[4SRKT]

See, it's so cropped I can't even tell a 156 from a 153!

 

[IanPooleTrains]

Well, I think it's a 156?????

 

[EltonRoad]

I think I might recognise this, it's not Hoveton and Wroxham is it?

How on Earth can you recognise this?? Unless it was you that chalked the number 66 on the platform that is?

 

[MCR247]

That looks like a CT 156 to me but where could it be?

 

[IanPooleTrains]

See now that is what I thought but it could be a Northern 156 or even a EMT 156

You just cannot tell

 

[MCR247]

I can tell that it is a CT 156, the blue on the right hand side of the units gives it away and the new headlights.

So it is definitely either a CT or exCT 156!

I travelled there very recently, I'm sure I recognise that plant pot and what bit of the background you can see. Could be wrong though.

Maybe he met a lady in the lounge car on the sleeper, went back to her compo and joined the 'Metre High Club'?

I've always wanted to do this BTW.....

 

[EltonRoad]

So have I. The nearest I've come to it was when a very good looking girl I was chatting to in the lounge car burst into my cabin a bit later on. Sadly though, she got the right cabin but the wrong coach.
