Indeed I was although thats not how I recognised the station - I used to use that station on a semi-regular basis some time ago so I recognised it immediately. :D

Anyway, next up:

Must be something about stations that begin with "A" today - it is indeed Acle!

Aha, thanks! :D

Was that taken onboard a Class 755, by any chance? I assumed it was due to the unusual lining on the window, which thus of course narrowed my options down quite significantly!

Anyway, here's the next station.

Good luck! :)

Indeed it was and I wondered if that window "hatching"might help in some way! It is a rather irritating feature that somewhat spoils what are by and large good new trains.

I'm yet to travel on a Class 755, but I have also thought that the feature, since finding out about it, does indeed look rather annoying!

It isn't Farnworth, I'm afraid. :)
