Deadline is Wednesday 8th October, at 8pm.

Seeing as how I'm the only one doing the photo quizzes, I thought I'd sneak these two in here to sync up the numbering, as I'm getting a bit confused. So step inside my DeLorean and guess the identity of the following two stations...

4.03:

4.06:

(The filenames and car reference might give you hints that all is not as it appears...)

These pictures look like they were taken before cameras were invented ...

Also the guy facing the camera in the top picture looks like a jockey :shock:

Would anyone like an extension until next week? They are a tad fiendish...

Harlesden most definitely is a Tube station! It's on the Bakerloo line, just east of Stonebridge Park.

Don't you just love synchronised triple posts?

In my defence, the map I use as a reference is a large poster sized one that was a birthday present above my computer monitor. As I'm short sighted I have trouble reading any stations above Euston :D

(Also I thought Harlesden was over to the West of London, but I was getting confused with Hayes and Harlington)

Can I play?

While Harlesden is on the Bakerloo line it is owned by what was then British Rail so would not have had LU signs.

That's a fair point. It's really weird seeing how unimpressive Hillingdon was back then. I've lived fairly near there all my life, so I really can't believe that I don't remember the way it was.

Actually, with pictures like this one, I can see why people are thinking that the nice, easy to guess quiz 4.07 is a trick one :mrgreen: I can be a bit of a sod at times!
