Neil,
Re the 'unknown location'-tagged links (that I can have a go at), here are the votes of the StevieG jury :

60003 - Down train at Greenwood,
60014 - Down train at Sandy

60025 (with colour-light signal beside) - I think, somewhere between Hadley Wood and Potters Bar, possibly on an Up train : if pushed, I'd have a stab at it being on the approach to Potters Bar Tunnel

60025 (with 2-doll bracket signal) - Up train at Greenwood (taken from same spot as that above of 60003).

Some refreshingly less common locations amongst these Neil.
