Do they have to be numbers in English? (EDIT- beaten to it above!)

Pontefract Tanshelf for 11 (auf Deutsch!)

Croxley on the Metropolitan Line gives you a Roman 40.

Saxilby also gives you 49.

Places like Swanwick give you 99.

Alvechurch gives you 55.

And so on…

Six Mile Bottom station closed in 1967 and the signal box lasted until 1983.

It is still possible to pass through Six Mile Bottom on a train between Cambridge and Dullingham.
Was Nine Mile Point a station or just a colliery? Four Oaks mentioned but there's also Three Oaks.

Two Mile Bottom AHB between Brandon and Thetford.

Same line, Spooner Row.

Are we allowed Tenterden Town?

There are quite a few ".....ton"s across the network - e.g. Dalston, Wallington, Warrington, Wolverhampton, ...... You get the idea!
