C - Backround is a "B-Class" Darj (do I get points for having driven one?) Yes. You get double points if you've sat on the cab roof breaking the coal whilst chugging along.

I don't remember Waverley looking like that. 'Brondesbury' must be the Gaelic spelling, then?

davethewomble it has been pointed out to the quiz team (by PM) that we hadn't spotted your guess. You are correct though that it is Euston: Location C: Euston (LO) - concourse ceiling [Chris M] (click for a larger version) All the insets in A are still to be found, as it's been a while you can have these versions: Inset A1: (click for a larger version) Inset A2: (click for a larger version) Inset A3: (click for a larger version) Inset A4: (click for a larger version) Inset A5: (click for a larger version)

I'd go so far as to say all the inserts aren't, but short of guessing countries (though I have a feeling I might get some of them right) I'd have no clue!
