Buckingham is not a station, but a blot (Stovold ch.6 rule 54.11c - Stations and Blots).

Were we playing the Pre-Modern Game, I could legitimately have played Buckingham under the Extended Station Subset clause, rule 54.32b (Extinguished Stations). Remember - I said "temporally", not "temporarily"!

But City Thameslink is above the Line! (Old Stovold's Original Line Law; "A Location or Property is either above the Line or it isn't".)

That leaves me with little choice to make amends with

CANNING TOWN (Tube line status inversion).

That's twice that Arnqvist's has been used within 10 moves, meaning that the entire of the Northern hemisphere (of the Game, not of the world) is effectively mirrored in terms of translation manoeuvres!!!

A southern hemispherical Arnqvist inversion should therefore take us to
