A reminder that there are several days outstanding including yesterday. Today, we have four locations to find, each with it's own bonus. Plus there is a bonus point for working the odd one out, and the link between the other three.....     *Click any image for a larger version* |

You have the locations between you, and one of the bonus points. We are still looking for the link between the stations and the odd one out, plus there are still some bonus points available. Station A: Harrow and Wealdstone - ticket hall from platform 6  Inset:  Station B: Finchley Road - building behind northbound Met platform  Inset:  Station C: Canon's Park - weston entrance  Inset:  Station D: Harrow on the Hill, above Chiltern platforms, July 2008  Background: Bristol Cathedral from Cabot Tower  *Click any of the images for a larger version* |

I'll take a cheeky guess at inset A being the Culloden memorial cairn.

Ok, I think they have all had extra platforms added to them except Canons Park, which remains as built!

Finchley Road is the odd one out, but the answer I'm looking for isn't about zones

Well it's in a different London Borough to the others, but I've said that already...
er...Finchley Road was the only one originally built with an island platform?

Think outside the stations (and it's not about Boroughs either)

I used to live outside Finchley Road station, no I wasn't a tramp, I was in the flats next to it. Perhaps, Finchley Road is the only one to have a supermarket outside the station, 2 if you include the Sainsburys. I'm getting really desparate now....

It isn't about supermarkets or other provisioners of goods, nor the former dwelling places of forum contributors (that would be too evil, even for me!). Transport is the key to this one.

Finchley Road is the only station not served by the 186 and 340 bus routes.

That is a top effort!! It is certainly true, although it may not be the correct answer! Great work!
As an aside, I'm rather fond of the 186, it has taken me hungover many a morning from my Mrs' house to Harrow station!

Finchley Road is the only station not served by the 186 and 340 bus routes. You have about 95% of the answer there, well done. |
