Guess the Station

[52A]

I really have to stop doing this. Being in Japan means I can get to these posts quickly.

Sorry 52A:

Looking south over Shankend Viaduct from Hawick station on the Waverley Route.

The 'box looks GN to me but I have no idea where it is. Perhaps the old cullingworth branch but that is probably too far north.

Not quite guess the station but guess the location in this vintage shot from a snowy March 1963.There is a station in the distance.

this signal gantry had pre br days had another level of these signals on the top ,not the the br addition on the left there was thee smaller posts there.{you can see the access ladder going up to the very top}was this one of the higest LNER signals?

note! also the bridge has two different sides ,one timber the other cast iron the timber one being the result of a derailment during the general strike when a locomotive went over the side and landed in the road below

How about this one? (can't sleep so enjoying the forum)

and this is?

Did anyone ever get hq1hitchin's station?

How about these two easy ones (GER territory)?

My guess is that the first one is Wolferton, between King's Lynn and Hunstanton, which was unusually ornate because of its proximity to Sandringham. The 1962 short film "John Betjeman Goes by Train" includes some nice footage shot here.

No idea where the second one is, though.

This is a picture i took today of an access road to a Network rail depot. Unfortunatly i don't know what this station was called but i know where it is. any guesses before i tell you its location?

Slateford, in the western suburbs of Edinburgh, with the platform being the former Caledonian station of Merchiston? If so, here's a picture of it before the only traffic it saw were white Transit flatbeds:

Quite correct! is this looking in the same direction? It is quite wierd when you get into Slateford depot itself and cross aformer railway bridge over a main line.
