Timetable Challenge

[Ivo]

It's simple. The following is an extract of the timetable at one specific station, somewhere in the South-East as the destinations would suggest, between 19:40 and 20:39 (I'm being lazy; I can't be bothered to search properly!). Just name the station!

19:52 to London Victoria
20:01 to Portsmouth & Southsea
20:02 to London Victoria
20:06 to Bognor Regis
20:06 to London Victoria
20:30 to Southampton Central
20:32 to London Victoria
20:35 to Bognor Regis

 

[MCR247]

Barnham?

 

[Ivo]

No, is not Barnham. Having said that though, it is of course the correct TOC. I mean, who else serves Bognor? ScotRail?

 

[MCR247]

Littlehampton!

 

[Ivo]

Uh, sorry. Still off.

 

[MCR247]

East Croydon

 

[Ivo]

Still off. If it was East Croydon the list would be far larger and more exotic (with destinations ranging from Bedford to Southampton, via various local London areas such as Tattenham Corner).

 

[Oracle]

Fratton?

 

[Ivo]

Nope. This is more challenging than I had expected...

 

[ralphchadkirk]

Angmering?

 

[Ivo]

Still no. All the answers have been at least fairly close thus far, but the correct station is still out there!

 

[87015]

Horsham. Must be as there is nothing to Brighton so its got to come down the Arundel Valley and none of the intermediate shacks get that many service.

 

[Ivo]

...And Horsham would be correct. I'll be back with another before too long; otherwise... any challenges from others?

 

[ralphchadkirk]

Worthing?

 

[Ivo]

Um, the answer's been. But Worthing would have been a decent guess... if missing the crucial "Brighton", as suggested by 87015.

 

[ralphchadkirk]

Oh - sorry - should have refreshed the page!

 

[Ivo]

Right then, a second for you all, as provided by Ivo's little sister, between 11:45 and 12:44.

1145 to London Victoria
1147 to Ramsgate and Dover Priory
1150 to London St Pancras International
1154 to London Charing Cross
1210 to Faversham
1215 to London Victoria
1217 to Ramsgate and Dover Priory
1220 to London St Pancras International
1224 to London Charing Cross
1232 to London Victoria
1240 to Faversham

 

[MCR247]

Gillingham? (Kent)

 

[Ivo]

SISTER'S RESPONSE:

"Awwww"
"Ok do ---"

[In other words, Gillingham is correct.]
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
This will be Ivo's last for now, and another suggested by his sister. So here we go, using 20:45 to 21:44 (being lazy again!).

2049 to Wolverhampton
2057 to London Euston
2059 to Wolverhampton
2102 to Birmingham New Street
2113 to Shrewsbury
2119 to Wolverhampton
2124 to Wolverhampton

[ralphchadkirk]

Adderley Park?

 

[Ivo]

No, but not too far off (geographically at least).

 

[ralphchadkirk]

Hampton-in-Arden?

 

[Ivo]

No, sorry. Keep trying.

 

[MCR247]

Stetchford

 

[Ivo]

Not Stechford. Try the other side of New Street.

 

[jayjay]

Crewe?

edit; wait, not even close

 

[Ivo]

It's closer to New Street than Crewe. To the point that it is within the Centro area.

 

[jayjay]

Aha, got it.

Sandwell and Dudley.

 

[Ivo]

Aha, got it.

...Sorry. It just looked like a good chance to mimic someone!

 

[jayjay]
