Trainblock

Can you identify a station from just a paving slab? Sadly, some people can

B: London Bridge

I'm very cautious about claiming a win prematurely, but have I done it this time?

(a) Move is valid - neither Waterloo nor London Bridge has direct services from Denmark Hill, and London Bridge has no direct services from Vauxhall.
(b) Peckham Rye is blocked (Southern)
(c) Elephant & Castle is blocked (Northern line)
(d) Clapham High Street/Clapham North is blocked (Northern line)
(e) Victoria is blocked - Outer South London Line (Southern) via Gipsy Hill

Have I missed anything?

Move (a) is wrong. Have a look down towards Barnehurst and Slade Green and you will see I am blocking both London Bridge and Waterloo (through Waterloo East).

Think this might sum up the type of problems we have.

[Invalid move - Wimbledon]

Oh hang on - that's on a direct line from Peckham Rye (as discussed before). Thinking again...
