Guess the Station...

Not Beauly

Lingwood?

 

[Crossover]

Not Lingwood. Got the right country now. If no one gets it by this evening I'll do a less cropped image

Nunthorpe

Right then. The wider angle pic will have to wait as I've not been on the PC since getting home but I'll give another clue in the meantime

The cropping is hiding the fact this station is NOT a single platform

 

[OxtedL]

Could it be Thornaby?

 

[Crossover]

Not Thornaby

Come on people! :P

Mirfield

Mirfield it is! Over to you

That was a total punt, it was the only island platform I could think of at teh time!

Good punt!

I suspect they've removed part of the ramp to extend the platform into the space to get another coach of the GC services fully on (as in the rear door), as they are too long for that platform.

Try this

Lancaster?

Lancaster?

Nope, sorry

Oxenholme, the lake district? It's defo a VT station though.

 

[Buttsy]

Neither of the 2 guesses

 

[185143]

Not a virgin train station. look closely you can see the First sign at the right side of the picture next to the lamp post.

They must have changed the sign when first were awarded the franchise

Not Penrith

I saw the First logo on the poster early on and thought the lamp posts were Virgin Red. Not a Virgin station, but some of their colours may well be there, Lockerbie?

I'm thinking that its either a Capital Connect or a Great Western station. TPX signs have the TPX logo rather than the FirstGroup one as a general rule, and ScotRail have the white crossy efforts nowadays (assuming that its a recent photo). I'm going to guess at Bradford-on-Avon as an opening bid.

 

[Buttsy]

Not Lockerbie or Bradford-upon-Avon

Will post a pick with more clues this afternoon

 

[clagmonster]

The Great Western idea intrigues me. If indeed the lamp posts are Virgin red, then they may be somewhere that the service was provided by the Cross Country franchise but the station managed by Great Western (like Coleshill is now with London Midland). Kemble?
