Enter a town in the box below
Correctly named towns will show up below
Answers do not have to be guessed in order
Settlements can be cities, towns, villages or suburbs and must be reflected somehow in the station name. Stations serving quite distinct places don't count (e.g. Adlington Lancs. and Adlington Ches.)

	what about Oldham?

	handlehandle:	Oct 14th, 2011 at 10:49 GMT		1 point
	@Marshy: apparently Oldham's remaining stations closed in 2009, and Oldham is now served by Manchester Metrolink instead. As for the quiz, I like the idea, but I think it would work better if you included all the settlements with more than one station, not just those where the name of the town is in the station's name (I realise this would be difficult with the source you are currently using).

	I missed loads of these, but what about Thorne in Yorkshire?

	angularity:	Oct 14th, 2011 at 22:03 GMT		1 point
	Nice idea for a quiz. Bradford seems to be missing: Forster Square and Interchange.

	Thanks @warren & @angularity. Some glitch had caused all the Yorkshire ones to go missing. They should be there now. Also thanks @handlehandle for correctly explaining Oldham. Decided I had to stick to the town name being included in the station name so that answers could be indisputable.

	crested_newt:	Dec 21st, 2011 at 22:45 GMT		1 point
	I like the inclusion of Newhaven Harbour!

	languagefiend:	Jan 10th, 2012 at 20:24 GMT		0 points
	Great criteria. I typed in Burgess Hill and realised that this quiz would have taken forever to make and do.

	What about Risborough (Princes and Monks)

	thecheshirecat:	Apr 9th, 2013 at 11:48 GMT		1 point
	Well, I would say that those are two separate setttlements. Unless someone called @thebuckinghamshirecat comes along and tells me otherwise, I don't believe there is such a place as just plain old Risbroough.
