west end of westbound at gloucester road What's in the container? I'm sure it wasn't there the last time I did track shunts there, but that was several years ago now. Funnily enough it made me think of the old days when P-Way compressors would be sat on the end of the platform and when we used to leave our tool bins, trolleys and cable drums chained up without a hoarding!

Yes I suspected as much with the weight indicated on the container, not like the old days when they sat open for passengers to tinker with! |

Welcome jeebeelodo!
There's a lot of non-staff around here (I'm another).
As for the quiz, and staff displaying inside knowledge. I'd say it's quietly understood that when people 'know' a site - either as a non-staff's local station or from passing through in their cab - they either keep quiet, and allow others time to guess first or send a PM to the quiz hosts.

Absolutely - some LUL staff do unfortunately get in quick and post the correct answer, but the vast majority will restrain themselves long enough to give everyone a chance.

I'm non LUL and Northern based!! (Although not a Northerner!)
But as a person who posts the pictures, I can confirm that I get quite a few PM's from staff who do know, but don't wish to spoil it. I suspect that robster and ChrisM would say the same.
Just keep trying. Some are easier than others, however the only really easy ones are the ones you know....
