How many train stations have you been to?

[DionneB]

i have been 6
Chorley
Wigan
Bolton
Manchester Oxford Road
Manchester Vjctoria
Manchester Piccadilly

I have no idea but a lot more than 6.

Do you mean in the last week?
Because even in the last week I've been to more than 6

Probably over a hundred, in the UK and abroad

A lot. Why?

Is there a list we can pick from? Do you have to get off the train for a specific period of time for it to count??

If we don't have to get off the train for it to count I've been to hundreds 😄

I have also been 6, and 7, and 8 for that matter. Now I'm quite a bit older than that though.

I have been to hundreds why?

Seriously?
Kings Cross
St Pancras
Marylebone
Waterloo
Fenchurch St
Sheffield
Nottingham
Derby
Oxford
Paris Gare du Nord
New York Grand Central ... etc ... etc

Seriously?

A heck of a lot more than six. We don’t drive :o

I’m assuming you only need to get off the train there and stand on the platform for it to count?

Let me think...

York
Chester
Crewe
Telford
Shrewsbury
Manchester Piccadilly
Liverpool Lime St
Liverpool James St
Birmingham New St
Birmingham International
Wolverhampton
Coventry
Weston super Mare
Stoke
Church Stretton

Been on the West Somerset and Severn Valley steam lines too if they count.

My DS is a rail enthusiast so has been to loads with plans to go to loads more.

Hundreds - have travelled by train from Thurso to Inverness (far north line) , Inverness to Aberdeen, Aberdeen to Glasgow and Edinburgh , Glasgow subway , Glasgow to Gourock line , Glasgow to Balloch line , a lot of other trains in and around Glasgow .... plus a few times Inverness to Aviemore .

Then also been on London Underground , Aberdeen to Taunton (that was horrendous), Birmingham metro, Newcastle metro , Aberdeen to Newcastle/Durham .

And probably more besides .

My dad was a trainspotter and it’s oddly rubbed off on me a little bit . I do strangely enjoy collecting weird or obscure stations . The far north line is fantastic for that ... lots of stations in the middle of vast landscapes of nothing .

I’m aware how weird that sounds - I don’t wonder around with an anorak and a notebook or anything , I just find train travel a bit ... romantic in some way?

Including underground?

Off the top of my head 40.

I've been to at least twice that on continents I don't live in.

I have managed 6 (get off and change/ wait) at 6 stations today. The trains stopped at many more.

Hundreds! Would like to count them actually... weird thread.

Many hundreds - use trains a lot here in uk and in other countries too. Never used a train in any African country I think, lots in India and through Europe. If we include underground’s and subways I wouldn’t know how to count them all. I may be a little older than you though.

There is absolutely no way I could count them all! Spent two years backpacking in Europe and travel by train regularly.

Curiosity satisfied?

There was a wonderful programme on BBC a while ago about trains ... poetry I think spoken by those travelling on the train from somewhere south to either Edinburgh or Glasgow . Wish I could remember what it was called now !

Wow! As an army brat definitely over 100 possibly more than 200

are we talking just U.K. Or other countries too?

If other countries too definitely over 200. Not sure I'd even know where to start!

I've had 31 different addresses for starters! 6 schools, 1 college, 2 unis and 22 employers!

As per the airport thread, I'm always wary of posters who are always asking for information.
