Hi All,
Introducing you to 'The Journey Game', a suggestion from forum member [m="Temple Meads"]7431[/m] - the aim of the game is to guess what journey the question setter is thinking about, through a series of clues.
I hope you all understand these, please direct any queries to either Temple Meads as above or to any QuizMaster and we'll try our best to get back to you as soon as we can.
Here's the first Challenge:
Over to you.

Introducing you to 'The Journey Game', a suggestion from forum member [m="Temple Meads"]7431[/m] - the aim of the game is to guess what journey the question setter is thinking about, through a series of clues.
The Rules said:
- 1. The aim of the game is to work out what journey a player is thinking about with the help of a series of clues, three major elements have to be deduced; the originating station, the destination station and the TOC/Rolling Stock travelled on, one clue for each element must be set in the first post, along with a clue regarding the actual journey which should be about something like landmarks passed, the sort of area you pass, or the type of journey that it is (the clues can be reasonably ambiguous at this stage, as long as the round gets easier as it goes along)
- 2. One new clue must be set out in each response by the “Journey Setter” (the Journey Setter is the player who currently has the floor), a round is only finished when all the elements have been solved.
- 3. After the initial post by the Journey Setter only one new clue can be posted at a time.
- 4. The journeys must be real UK National Rail journeys at all times, journeys with changes are not currently permitted, although there is scope for this at a later date.
- 5. If 48 hours pass without response from the Journey Setter the floor becomes open.
- 6. If 24 hours pass without any responses to a Journey, the Journey Setter can post a new clue.
- 7. The winner of each round takes the floor, unless they declare open floor (please do this when posting responses, to keep the game moving).
- 8. If a player gets only one or two elements of a Journey correct, the Journey Setter can declare that fact, although that will make the rest of the game easier as the first player to post a response with all three journey elements correct will win the round.
- 9. Finally have fun, and if you have any questions please contact Temple Meads by PM.
I hope you all understand these, please direct any queries to either Temple Meads as above or to any QuizMaster and we'll try our best to get back to you as soon as we can.
Here's the first Challenge:
As a first journey, try this:
1. The originating station has more than 5 platforms.
2. The destination station is DC electrified.
3. The stock is diesel powered.
4. The journey takes over two hours.
But what is it?
Over to you.
