Post by tangy »

Hello again, another double dose of the photo quiz from Tangy.

Photo 15.06: Although not directly on or outside the mystery station, this structure is nearby but very much assiocated with the station itself.

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

So here are the results for photo Quiz 15.06 and 15.08. Photo for 15.06 kindly provided by Laxmessh.

Photo 15.06 shows the notorious low bridge over South Norwood Hill/Portland Road just to the north of Norwood Junction station. This bridge is well known for overheight vehicles crashing into it and subsequently getting stuck beneath it!

Successfully cleared the bridge:
--Edgemaster
--barrykas

Oops...
--nozzacook (Wood Street)
--Going Underground (Finsbury Park).
--Andi (Pinner)
--Starkey (Dollis Hill)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Photo 15.08 shows the Villiers Street entrance of Embankment as photographed from the pedestrian walkway beside the mainline tracks out of CHX over Hungerford Bridge.

On dry land...
--nozzacook
--dudey
--Edgemaster
--scrxisi
--Nigel
--greatkingrat
--starkey
--jbom
--Andi
--barrykas
--steeevooo

In at the deep end...
--Going Underground (Charing Cross). Of course the current Embankment used to be known as Charing Cross, but its the current name that count (as the present day Charing Cross is a separate station). Sorry.

This concludes photo quiz 15.06 and 15.08
