This is a Central line train to "Woodford via Hainault"- sadly, not no more!

It is about time I shut down this quiz as my inbox has been bombarded with entries for these two photos. This just proves to me that these were far too easy for you, thus I seriously need to ratchet up the EVL scale a fair few notches! :twisted:

Photo 10.02 is, of course, the very distinctive station building of SOUTHGATE

One point goes to:
--steeevooo
--mps247
--Lancaster Gate
--tubguru
--Mitchell&BrownLook
--Edgemaster
--greatkingrat
--Soup Dragon
--jbom1
--barrykas
--garion24wales
--Sam
--Nigel
--jamesthgill
--mullardo

Nil points go to
--Starkey (West Finchley)
------------------------------------------------
Photo 10.04 shows the main station entrance of FINCHLEY CENTRAL.

Another one point goes to:
--mps247
--Lancaster Gate
--tubeguru
--Edgemaster
--greatkingrat
--jbom1
--barrykas
--steeevooo
--garion24wales
--Sam
--jamesthegill
--mullardo

A further nil points go to:
--Starkey (Woodisde Park)

The thing they both have in common.... they are both served by bus routes 125 or 382 (depending on which way round you prefer).

Enough is enough. The door is firmly shut on this one!

I'd like to thank drunken pub conversations for giving me the answer to 10.04.

I think I've just worked out why Starkey is rubbish at photo quizzes ...

I thought his comment was quite funny, if it was meant that way :)

I'm never sure if Starkey deliberately guesses them incorrectly for a laugh. When it comes to hisa answers, I'm not sure whether he is just spectacularly unlucky or simply too lazy to search out the answer beyond what his first impressions tell him.

Oh blast. No, they're not both on the Northern line are they? I had guessed West Finchley and Woodside Park, which are both on the Northern line, and I must have confused my answers with the correct ones.

Actually Neil is closer to the truth than he realises. I'll look at a photo for a few seconds, and then if I can't make an educated guess then I will just go mad and say anything. Better than not entering at all, and it seems to give you lot a laugh too.
