Take a gander at the photo below (or click on it for a larger version) and then guess the location.  It's probably very easy, but I haven't been as stupid as to leave the station name on the roundel showing... Chris edit:grammar |

I have a feeling that like all the previous 'guess the location' quizzes, this one won't last long   ;D |

Sorry Chris - I was just lucky you showed part of the combine that I have a special interest in ;D I was 'driving' that area last night...  Of course, there could be a similar passenger bridge elsewhere I'm unaware of, but it looked prety distinctive. |

Sorry Chris - I was just lucky you showed part of the combine that I have a special interest in ;D I was 'driving' that area last night... Wow, the detail on that virtual D stock cab is amazing! But you're only doing 27mph, and you appear to have let the Picc overtake you... not good enough! ;D Actually that bridge is for staff only, and connnects with a walkway to the Picc train crew depot at Bollo House. |

It's not Northwood, nor is it on the Met. I've not even been on that Branch of the Met (makes a mental note to correct this oversight at the next opportunity).

Ok, so its Monday but here is the next picture. I don't expect it to last as long as the previous one, even with the blunt editing.  |

Well done Christopher, it is Hammersmith. Don't why i'm thinking it, as i've only been there once - but i'm sure i've seen a wall like that at Harrow-on-the-Hill Having never been to HotH (yet - when I next get time, my next exploration on the LU will be the northern reaches of the Met) I couldn't say. No more from me tonight. |

The first for this morning - once you've guessed what it is and where it is, perhaps someone can tell me why it is.  |

No idea of the location, but being in 'pedant' mode I assume you are allowed to smoke on platform 2...........
