That's because I've never photographed at Barons Court! I don't think I've ever even alighted there. I'll try and remember to look out for it when I'm next photographing in London.

Been into the sand drag at BC! This was the Auto-Tube Rambler tour, when we reversed an 8-car EB-SB in BC Siding and the train wa so long that it uniquely I suppose had to go forward into the SD to clear the rear points. Time was on the Picc when there were BC-reversers, from Wood Green?

These were killer turns if you started one at ATE after grub in the am. |

There is a late night 'rusty rail' move - other than that it is only used when the service has problems.

Following a comment on the chat thread about my quiz being fun for people at one member's work I thought I ought to say that all the photos can be found at www.sucs.org/~cmckenna/photos/quizes/tubequiz/ (my website is currently down, due to a problem upstream of my hosting provider, but I expect it to be working by about 10am if not earlier. I will also upload a text file with the answers to that directory when I'm next able). Everyone is free to use the photos as they wish as long as they don't make any money from them. The same applies to all photos I've taken and uploaded for the purposes of quizes. Chris |

I'll have a look through my photos and see if I've got any more suitable to use/modify for a quiz - a lot of those photos were taken specifically with the quiz in mind! It'll likely take a few days at least.
