This really was a very dull day, this was taken at lunchtime...
http://dennis-lance.fotopic.net/p21284089.html - piddling down with rain and dark. Can't remember what camera Jim has but it is fully automatic so I expect the exposure times were long resulting in much camera shake.
I even had to bin a load of my pics (taken with a Fuji F455) for the same reason. However, I am now convinced of the value of a tripod - took some experimental shots in the dark with the camera just resting on the platform or benches, for example

Looks like a three legged friend is needed.
Regarding the comment about different angles etc, I totally agree but even at the token exchange points, stop time was minimal (and we were running late so it was unreasonable to expect the train to hang around).
Another trip on this line will happen in the future (soup and a stroll perhaps) to try and bash some stations - might even check out the local bus service (if there is any!!!).
Anyway, got another 120 miles of new route to go on my map.
