Thankyou! I guessed right but wasn't sure if it was Har, Ha, Hay, Brr or Borough. I once had some non locals ask for a return to Coss Elli For moment I thought is that somewhere in Wales? They meant Coseley. Pronounced Coze-lee

Grand Central instead of New Street. Arrgh please! Owen Street for Tipton as previously mentioned is VERY common, and Cotteridge for Kings Norton also. I think WMR have now put this on the running in boards at the station.

Habrough. Never knew how this was meant to be pronounced. As a guard with Central we had some through workings from Salop to Grimsby. Don't think anyone at my end had heard of the place either. No one corrected me on my undoubtedly dodgy pronunciation during the opening announcements.

What has WMT got to do with it? The OHL might have been granted approval but Network Rail haven't yet completed the platform lengthening required for the 4 car 350s. They also won't have enough EMUs to run both the Rugeley - Euston and the local Walsall trains all day until TPE hand over the...

Bescot complete as of today. In this weeks handrail lottery the result is ... Orange. We will see what happens with Walsall.
