All you have to do is identify the station shown in this picture and PM me your answer. I'll close it whenever I can be arsed; we're under no pressure here.

There are no extra points for annotated answers (although maybe there should be), but I admire your dedication.

Does anyone else know this and want to enter? Does anyone NOT know this and want to enter?

OK, I think we're done with this.

The answer was, of course, Edinburgh Waverley. I'll work out who got it right in a sec.

And a wonderful station it is too. I'm due to pass through it tomorrow at 4:23pm (on the Highland Cheiftan from Kings Cross to Inverness.)

Do we get an updated results table soon?

Yes, I'll get onto it. Am I actually administering it?

I suppose I thought you must be, but no worries if not! :D

I guess I'm just interested how many people are playing, and how accurate their guesses are (or if I'm the only anorak! :oops: )

In the previous rounds, just about everyone has got them all right, except for maybe one person per round. I'm not worried about stats for it - it's only a bit of fun.
