Another station on the East Lancashire Line is Burnley Barracks.

Sorry, but that posting is more suited to be on the Settlement Association quiz, rather than this one, which looks for railway-associations

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

I say a station and the person below would say another station that has something in common with it. It doesn't have to be unique, but try and make it as different as possible! For example I might start with Cardiff Central, the next person would reply Kings Cross (both have a platform 0) and the person after could say Gatwick Airport (another Network Rail managed major station).

Note that you should only reply with a station on the main BR network (e.g. not Underground or Preserved Railway) that is still open.

Perhaps the quiz rules extract above will give a better understanding.

Tulse Hill was also opened in 1868 by the London, Brighton and South Coast Railway.

Noting the lack of a rail related link to the Denmark Hill posting we continue from Tulse Hill.

Tulse Hill originally had a bowstring-arched iron and glass roof covering all four platforms. and the brick retaining walls of this structure survive. However, it appears that the roof was demolished as a precautionary measure following the collapse of a similar one at London Charing Cross in 1905.

London Marylebone is also a London terminus served by the Bakerloo line.

 

[High Dyke]

Sheffield is still served by the Master Cutler train. It originally ran from London Marylebone.

 

[A Challenge]

Birmingham New Street is also the largest station linking to an English Tram network.

 

[High Dyke]

London Cannon Street was another station that was redeveloped in the 1960's to hide most of it away. It has also been subsequently redeveloped again.

 

[TT-ONR-NRN]

London Charing Cross is the other main SouthEastern terminus on a bridge over the Thames.

 

[A Challenge]

Woking also has six platforms

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Woking station was opened by the London & Southampton Railway in 1838, as was the present day Esher station, although it was then called Ditton March.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Aldershot is also a DfT category C2 station which is managed by South Western Railway.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Bangor (Gwynedd) station also has a tunnel adjacent to and visible from the station platforms.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Abergele and Pensarn was also opened by the Chester and Holyhead Railway in 1848.

I have just updated the rules to make it clear that this game is only for rail related associations. If you wish to post links that don't have anything to do with railways then please use the settlement association thread: https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/settlement-association.54265/

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Abergele and Pensarn station is served by an hourly service in each direction (weekday daytimes) on the Manchester to Llandudno route operated by Arriva Trains Wales. This service calls at (among other places) Helsby station.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Hough Green also has Grade II listed status.

 

[kevconnor]

Hoveton & Wroxham was also opened in 1874 and was also previously the site of a junction.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

North Walsham is also a DfT category F1 station that was once served by the services of the Great Eastern Railway.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Cromer is also on the Bittern Line.

 

[High Dyke]

Glossop is another termini station where services reverse to continue their journey.

 

[DanNCL]

Hadfield is also a termini where trains reverse to continue their journey

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Assuming that High Dyke's offer of Glossop is the right one as it was posted earlier, I'm going to move on with this.

The station buildings at Glossop were designed by the partnership of John Grey Weightman and Matthew Ellison Hadfield. They were also responsible for the station buildings at North Thoresby in 1848.
