My first Z1 was 2006 (Sloane Square / Angel in the Fields) and have I been able to attend them all since then and each and every one has been a thoroughly nice and enjoyable day :D
Looking forward to the 2012 event, the day has long since been booked off work 8)

I don't think there are currently due to be any closed stations so The Ravens list look to be the omissions from the draw......

As I haven't been to one since 2008, it's probably about time I gave this a go again.
