Mornington Crescent

Can you identify a station from just a paving slab? Sadly, some people can

An excellent move in light of us playing Standard Rules Version Six. I'll cross the Latvia-Spain axis divide and send us to GREENLAND, collecting one polar token en route.

There's only one place for ford so we go Dagenham East and collect a green token to open up the Zone 1 black hole.

Hmm. Version 6 applies, we're at an East station, a green token has just been collected from Greenford, assuming we can play the fifteenth amendment, that takes me to Mornington Cresc...

oh crap. I can't do that on a first move in game under the fifteenth. Sorry, my knowledge is a little rusty. I can only go to WATERLOO (W+C)

As I am such a bastard, I put a minimum 37 move block on anyone taking advantage of the fifteenth amendment by traversing to BANK (W+C).

Your 37-move block has thwarted my plans. On the one hand I wanted to go to Waterloo and now I can't. However, the bad news for you is that we are now in spoon.

Being in spoon at Warren Street so close to Mornington Crescent has caused a converse inversion of flux de-electrifying zones 1-2, however I can escape on a one-way ticket via diesel heritage no further though than GOLDERS GREEN :? At least being above ground I can keep an eye on the current wearer of the Star and Moon cap....

tractakid was not in possession of the Star and Moon cap and and was in fact in the divers boots which as we know when wearing these it is impossible to restore electric current to Z1,2 which means we remain at GOLDERS GREEN

But I cycled there on foot! You can't claim that is not a valid move!

I insist.

Playing the "Made up Place" challenge card entitles me to 3 groats and a giraffe foot.

This means I can bypass the standard tram system rules version 9.79 and jump straight to PIMLICO.
