Not the fault of the random generator, as I am not using it for this round. As mentioned in the first post, this will be a live draw at the station with challengers picking stations out of a bucket.

The start station was picked out from this very same bucket by a family member.

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