A good idea, but no. You're in completely the wrong part of the map.

A is the exit from a Victoria line platform, but it isn't King's Cross St. Pancras.

Post by Colin D on Oct 7, 2020 15:01:05 GMT
We have a couple of correct answers for location A, one from gantshill and this one. Hi there, As I've already answered a couple for the October Day 6 quiz, I'll submit my guess of Tottenham Hale for Location A via PM.
I must say, I am enjoying the quizzes, they're good fun. Kind regards, Quex
Answer: Location A: Tottenham Hale - exit from northbound platform to escalators [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Still looking for the location C and the link.

They might, but the link we are looking for today isn't anything to do with typefaces.

The distance between that station and one stop away from London is further than that and one stop nearer to London.

I don't fully understand what you mean, but the link isn't related to distance between stations or distance from London.
