OK, another update to collate all of this rubbish:

You cannot get to this station direct from Newcastle
This station is not served by First Group-run franchises
This station is located in England
The station is served exclusively by diesel-powered trains
You cannot get to this station direct from Clapham Junction
This station is located (geographically) between the WCML (Euston to Glasgow) and the ECML (King's Cross to Edinburgh)
This station is not north of the latitude of Manchester
This station may well be served by class 15x trains (see my reasoning)
This station is not served by Cross Country
This station does not serve Chiltern Railways Trains
Northern Trains services call at this station
This station is not in the ceremonial county of Cheshire

Does more than one TOC serve this station with regular scheduled trains? (for instance because I'm not very good at clarifying things, Exeter Central sees FGW and SWT trains wheras Barnstaple only sees FGW trains; Barnstaple would answer 'no' while Exeter Central would answer 'yes')
Attempts: 2 (17h38m, 238 stations) (unknown, 200 stations); Completions: 0; GWR: 0; PBs: 0.

If we are talking about NT, then the vast majority of thier diesel trains are Sprinters (the brand name for class 15x units) or Pacers with only aq handful of other diesels, they have 3 Adelante 180s on hire at the moment! They have an open unit allocation thus you may get a Pacer or you may get a Sprinter!

Anyway, onto my question, are you in a PTE area?

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