I will make a better job of this than the last one!

I am at a currently served UK station that has seen services and has timetabled services to run in time to come (tomorrow or in a short time).

Do you have a version where the station names aren't in overly dark grey?

Marvellous. I manage to find a map that I can actually read and now it seems that other people can't :(

Try this one then (which I think shows the same stations).

Is the station in England ?

Would people generally think of it as a station on a "heritage" railway ?

Clarification request. Did your answer 1/20 on the summary map apply to the line or just the station ?

Apart from in the London area (denoted by a grey box), all lines are shown on that map as far as I know.

Is it served by at least one of the following: East Midlands Trains, Virgin Trains East Coast, Great Northern, Abellio Greater Anglia, TfL Rail, c2c?
