It's not 220034 and it's not in the Yorkshire area.

Well heck. I was sure, for a second there, that I was a genius!

I want my additional 15 minutes back

infinite monkey · 12-18-2011, 08:49 AM

ARGHHHH...I've lost track of how much time I want back!

Another little clue, it is not the first photograph of this station to appear in the Cellar.

So far I ve been able to determine that it is a Class 121 "Bubble" train. If the number 034 is an identifier, then it is the 121 034 operated by Chiltern Railways, it's their only Class 121.

And that damned station is probably Aylesbury.

Well done it is Aylesbury, the station previously featured in the Cellar here

Very well done, GM
How did you come by the "Class 121 Bubble" train ? I don't see any clues in the pic.
Is that the sort of the thing that Brit/European travelers would know ?

Where is this house?

I'm struggling with this one.

The house appears quite old, possibly 19th century, constructed of brick, stone, wood and possibly with an iron framework. One of the most noticeable features is the decorative carvings of the eaves.

Conducting multiple Google image searches concentrating on the eaves, trying to narrow down the style of architecture, I keep on coming up with Russian buildings using similar decorative features. Examples include this, that and the other. The Russians appear to like decorating their eaves. Am I on the right track?

I came up with a list railway companies in the UK and then tried to find some detail on their fleet. Wikipedia gave me a list of cars for one company and each model had its own entry with pictures. When I found an identical one I shortened the search.

Lamplighter · 12-18-2011, 07:13 PM

GM, I'm impressed !

GunMaster357 · 12-19-2011, 01:52 PM

Oh yes you're on the right track.
