Or, "Where is this?" for those who aren't familiar with the Westcountry vernacular...  The only clue is that it is somewhere the travelling public have access to. Chris |

It looks like Bank to me.

Or possibly the long subway at Liverpool Street.

This one is (hopefully) a little bit harder...  |

A rather dirty window on a type of train that regularly explores foreign parts towards Sudbury Town... ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Correct, but I'm interested in how you worked it out. Similarly with the next one - where is it and why do you think that?  |

Dead easy. Paddington H&C. The arch gives it away.

Going by the destinations on offer, the first of those two must be somewhere between Baker Street and High Street. I'll take a random guess and say Praed Street Inner Rail.

There's a catch so be careful.<img src="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y279/Q8stock/img002.jpg" alt="Image hosted by Photobucket.com"> Only way to get the image to fit the window is to post the link fo both images

You can always resize photos in Photobucket itself. ( better to post link to large phot. tho) Perhaps one of the Chris's could explain how you can post a small photo and keep the zoom function active: this seems the best of all worlds!  . It can then go in the HTML tips thread as well. |

Correct, but I'm interested in how you worked it out. SWT and C stocks (2) together - not to mention half the station name on the far platform |

It can then go in the HTML tips thread as well. IIRC it already is in the HTML tips thread, but I'll double check. My method is to have two photos - one full size and one small size. I then use the following code:
[url=url-of-big-picture][img]url-of-small-picture[/img][/url]
Basically, the small image is a link to the large image. an example from above:
[url=http://www.sucs.org/~cmckenna/photos/quizes/londonunderground01.jpg]
[img]http://www.sucs.org/~cmckenna/photos/quizes/londonunderground01sm.jpg
[/img][/url]
(except without the line breaks). |

Correct, but I'm interested in how you worked it out. I see too much of the place. My parents used to go shopping there and I pass though Wimbledon quite often when I'm just wandering around London. Besides, it's the only place where you can get a shot of a 455 next to a C Stock side by side. Similarly with the next one - where is it and why do you think that? It's Paddington (taken on the H&C platforms), and why do I know that? Like Wimbledon, I see too much of the place!! ;D |

Something tells me that's Notting Hill Gate WB, I must admit I do like those Train Describers. Boston Manor, taken on the WB platform looking EB, I think. I think I've had enough goes now, I'll let others have a go. |

Nope. Not South Kens. I shall be surprised if anyone get it without a bit of research. Read the highlighted (blue) text in the original posts!!

Would the catch be that "Inner Circle" used to mean the Circle Line in either direction, not specifically the inner rail?
In which case, it could be somewhere between Sloane Square and Tower Hill.
Maybe it is Sloane Square - the original station hit by a bomb during WW2?

Nope not Sloane Square. 'Inner circle' is not the catch either. Keep 'em coming.
