Of course he isn't, Dalston is one of the request stops on this line.

Are you at Maryport itself?

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

Ok, I didn't know Dalston was a request stop :(

Just realised I've forgotten the other side of the mainline. Are you between Carlisle and Settle?

I thought you were rather fixated with the Cumbrian Coast Line. Yes, I am (17/20)

What do you mean, Tangy? Do you mean do all scheduled Northern passenger trains passing call at the station?

Okay, I'll rephrase, do all NT trains that are routed past this station call here?

Sorry, not sure how I missed answering this, but Lazonby & Kirkoswald is indeed correct. A very belated well done!
