Welcome to the UK's second round! We have a strong pool of routes - a staggeringly strong top bracket as you'll see, a clash within that bracket between the two former champions, and a number of very interesting ties. Let's have a look. 1. Southeastern Highspeed vs Brighton Mainline 2. Blackpool vs Preston - Carlisle ------------- 3. Riviera Line vs Cathcart Circle 4. Midland Mainline vs Edinburgh - Glasgow ------------- 5. Birmingham XCity vs Manchester Airport Commuter* 6. WCML South vs Cardiff City Commuter ------------- 7. East Coastway vs Tees Valley Line* 8. Great Western Express Vs Fife Circle *TVL and MAC had to be swapped from their spots in the original draw as TVL was already in a group with Birmingham. Rules You will be allocated eight votes, so one per tie. You can use two in a tie but you'd just cancel yourself out and feel a bit silly. This will run for 48 hours as usual.
