    Dovetail.

    Edit: I'm putting it up again. Same picture- it'll just be that bit easier to get to if it's at the top of this page rather than the bottom of the last one.

    Well it is a big route, I've not played it ages so I have no idea. A wall and an A4 do not give much away.

    You wouldn't typically have seen an A4 here back in the day but I did place it there for a reason. I'd dare bet a few people reading this will have seen this in person.

    Shildon on the line going to the wast and the strange brickworks are the coal drops
    Not taken a run down there as it is fairly short

    Bullseye. The coal drops were built by the Stockton and Darlington Railway and are now part of the Locomotion site. As for the staging watch this from about nine minutes in:

    Third Rail? Quite a few tracks on the area? I'm going Brighton.

    The train is sort of realistic as it was a Buffer Puffer Scenario from DPS I think
    And the station is just behind me

    Yep definitely know now! I first thought it was Preston Park hence why I guessed Brighton (the tunnel behind leading to Hove).

    Yeah your right, finally someone answered. I knew it was Tulse Hill, but used my guess guessing elsewhere.

    We will wait on confirmation

    I knew it was in the South London area, but had to confirm which tunnel/junction it was with Google Maps.

    The 319 was a massive clue.

    Seems like the Southwest England route, with you saying they'll be racing each other in different directions seems to me as if they are on the the loop round through Richmond (Hounslow loop I think).

    My local area so I recognise that bridge. I always find it amusing how there's a Russian submarine casually parked up on the Medway next to it.
    Next up, might be easy...

    You're on the Wherry Lines looking at the remains of Haddiscoe High Level station.

    Ok, let's push things a bit.

    I commuted over this bridge for 3 and a half years. Where is it?

    I think you are right as there are only two overbridges between Stafford nr1 and Whitehouse Jn

    Sheffield.
    Why do I say that? The large number of platforms, the colour of the stonework and you can just seen the top of the tram power poles.

    Yep, didn't want to make it too hard so left a few hints in such as tram poles and the platform number

    Google maps show it as Wardle Canal

    749006 you are correct. It's the Venetian Marina at Cholmondeston, Nantwich.
