MK?

Sounded like a good day on the Metrolink, getting a few shacks out of the way

 

[rg177]

Just distinguishing between Mainline and Metrolink. MK just means Metrolink Indeed it was. 10 days time and I'll be finishing Ashton and the Airport lines!

Clear the lot of what? SWT? I have loads left! I think you are way ahead of me on shack scoring across the country though.

Sorry I was rushing that a bit on the way to work this morning. I meant you'll probably clear LU for shacks before I do. I've just got my next London trip confirmed, over multiple days, and I'm planning another solo trip there already.

The chase to clear LU shacks is on

I might well be well ahead of shack scores around the country, need to update my counts!

 

[Kite159]

The race is on, who will clear LU stations first to join the LU clearance club

The onto the TfL shack clearance club

[futuramareference]Clarification request![/futuramareference]

Is TfL covering everything within Zones 1-9? If so I'm not a long way off that, quite you've reminded me I need to look at sorting some of them out. Just a shame some are served only by Southern, so it's no guarantee the train will run

Pretty much everything within the Oyster area (zones 1-9, plus other NR stations outside the zones but where you can use Oyster [Grays, Redhill etc]. So all NR, DLR, LU, Trams

Interesting, that covers quite a few outside of Zone 9 from memory. Game on!

Expect a slightly different list from me in about a week's time, should the plan come to fruition. Couple of different ideas floating around, and will depend partly on engineering works too, but it could be interesting...
