Erm no, just my brain working overtime! Should have been Rauceby! Although due to someone bodging the road sign you could be forgiven for thinking it had changed its name!

1. How to play
When submitting a station, you must use the full station name. All entries on this quiz must be in the English version of the station name, as those in the Welsh or Scottish Gallic spelling can be confusing to other contestants, who may not know where a correct answer has been given. If there is only one name, officially recognised by National Rail Enquiries, then this should be used. All entries should be easily distinguishable from any other text to avoid confusion, by either bold typeface or leaving an empty line either side.

8. IN THE EVENT OF A WRONG ANSWER:
If a submission to the quiz is incorrect, but there have been no further posts, the author may edit their post, so long as the original is shown as crossed out. After striking through an incorrect entry, you must use reply rather than edit to post your new entry. This aims to prevent confusion to allow for smooth proceedings.

If there have been further posts, either of two circumstances should occur;
i) The author states their position, thus making any posts after the original superfluous. The original incorrect answer should be crossed out. The game is then continued by a different individual, starting from the station before the incorrect submission.
ii) Another individual states their suspicion, which is then confirmed by another player. Anyone is then welcome to continue the game, again starting from the station before the incorrect submission. Again, the incorrect answer should be crossed out. If you are unable to cross the answer out, due to reasons beyond your control, you should only edit to a statement giving an acceptable reason. You should not make another posting until another person has posted. If the post is edited, then it will be assumed that the entry has been changed, unless a clear reason is posted in the reason box.

9. Any entry that has been edited or deleted without good reason will lose 10 points from that leg.
If a submission has been posted by an author, which was seen as incorrect and crossed out having been superseded by an earlier post, but was then discovered to be correct, will make all submissions following it superfluous. The game shall restart from the submission which superseded the submission.

These are some useful extracts of the rules of the quiz for new contestants to be aware of,
