	Having made this, I realise that it will be extremely difficult for anybody, let alone somebody not from the UK. So don't be disappointed if you can only get about 20, I myself struggle to get past 50.

	Mighty Spireites make it onto the list

	@Cheeselord: Sporcle has educated me pretty well. I'm a Texan who got half of them right. Maybe, one day I'll come over there and become familiar with some of these places in more than just name.

	Without giving away any spoilers, it helps if you have a good knowledge of football teams, particularly the lower league sides! :)

	I wonder why Wolverhampton doesn't make the source's list.

	@Brizza-Because it's included in the Birmingham area. If this were on city limits, I imagine it would be quite high up the list.

	I've added a few alternative answers for some of the cities, but I didn't want to add anything that I thought was too small a part of the metro to really be significant. Dudley, for example, isn't an alternative, while Bradford and Wolverhampton now are.

	Much better than the other Sporcle quiz on UK metros, which has some very odd answers! I live in the UK and didn't do that well. Not being a football fan, my strategy was trying to remember all the railway stations I've ever gone through and even then I missed some very obvious ones! Good fun, will definitely give it another go.

	I scored 48 using an old ABC Railway guide. I got as far as Deal before I ran out of time, becoming confused with lots of train services to small towns instead of just looking for the larger towns. And then I forgot it was the UK- i thought it was just England. Tip for quizzers - always read the whole of the question, never just assume anything!!! Good quiz, will try it again without the "help" of the ABC guide.
