In this unlikely case, there is no need to request stop the train. Just stop your watch when you are passing the platform, assuming the request stop is shown in the timetable.A Challenge wrote: ↑15 Feb 2020, 20:24 I'm not going to be there, but nasty hypotheticals here - what if your last station is arrived at by foot and then your next station call is a request stop
My rule is sufficient. Request stops only exist on the Stratford-upon-Avon line and are shown clearly in the timetable. Your 17:54 example is a fast train and does not have request stops, so cannot be used to visit, say Wood End.tangy wrote: ↑16 Feb 2020, 12:46I would amend this to:tufnellpark wrote: ↑10 Feb 2020, 12:47 If a station is shown as a request stop in the timetable but no one requests that stop then a pass through of the station is accepted.
"If a station is shown as a request stop in the timetable and the train is booked to call but no one requests that stop then a pass through of the station is accepted".
This would eliminate trains such as the 1754 ex Stratford which is non stop Henley to Whitlock's End, thus are not booked to call at the request stops.

Will you be putting the list of stations up on the forum on Saturday morning? Would be fun to do the challenge virtually, especially as Dave has done all the work with maps and timetables.

Please clarify. Intending to time using phone and take photos from phone. Cannot take photo of phone from phone. What are you expecting from "timed photo"? If time permits could selfie station sign and DMI, but not necessarily going.to be possible.tufnellpark wrote: ↑10 Feb 2020, 12:47 By order of the Peaky Blinders….
a timed photo of each station, showing clearly the station name. You do not need to do this for your first station, if you depart from Birmingham New Street.
