RMweb Premium 45156 Posted May 16, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 16, 2018 Oh off the tube map again, which is now being allowed (I think we had our five moves on just the tube), so I'm going to invoke a move South of the river to the Overground again with HONOR OAK PARK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium 45156 Posted May 16, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 16, 2018 Well, the name of the game is Mornington Crescent, so that's where I'd expect is to wind up as usual, as Windsor doesn't appear on any map of TFL that I've seen, but I will bow to others' opinions on that one.

RMweb Gold tomparryharry Posted May 16, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 16, 2018 I see posters have stopped at Honor Oak Park, which is just up the road from my old house. So, a brisk walk down Devonshire Road brings us to FOREST HILL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold tomparryharry Posted May 16, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 16, 2018 Sorry Folks, I didn't realise we were only playing the Underground Short Game. So, with our 'upside down' ticket revoked the move is to:- HANGER LANE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letterspider Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 If this is a wedding special is the aim to end up at Windsor or at MC ? You could go to CRYSTAL PALACE, those two venues get on like a house on fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold tomparryharry Posted May 16, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) On a slight aside, I'm just reading the book on Crystal Palace. I well remember dad holding me up to look at the derelict High Level station, probably 1960-61. There was a very large house above Paxton tunnel. If I ever win the lottery, well.... So, away from Crystal Palace, and my wanderings take us to:- STONEBRIDGE PARK Edited May 16, 2018 by tomparryharry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium 45156 Posted May 21, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 21, 2018 Oh a shrewd move, and puts the Northern in spoon for three moves, and I won't use the wild card that I was given by Barry Cryer himself, so it has to be a District Diversion to ELM PARK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sem34090 Posted May 21, 2018 Share Posted May 21, 2018 Ah, I like the District... And they used to run services to... WINDSOR Unfortunately due to GTR's new timetable due to my lack of internet access over the weekend I couldn't make the move then. However, now we're onto LSWR metals (or SR, BR(S), LSE, NSE, SWT, SWR or whatever your generation is) we can head up to: WATERLOO Note my use of the Bakerloo line colour instead of the Northern one... please!
