Okay, here's another.
Where is this? All I will say is that it was taken in 1911.

Could it be a (pre-1912) station somewhere between the Metro Centre and Ryton-on-Tyne? I'll stop after this one and give someone else a go. :oops:

Jonathan

It was all the lads and lasses, all with smiling faces, which gave it away.

Yes, the pretty cool comment by 52A did kinda give it away (for all Geordies anyway).
Blaydon it is, looking East.

Nice one gents.

Well signal box name ends in gill, mill or even hill. Rowlands Gill ,Haverton hill or Bardon mill. By the way i googled Edinburgh sub the other night to try to id an earlier pic that several of us thought was the sub but found no positive match.
