I still miss Nottingham Victoria.

The only bits left are "the clock tower" & the mouth of the "Mansfield Road Tunnel" (visible from the Victoria centre car park) + the odd bit of wall.

I was never a spotter but if I had been my favorite (or pet he he) station would have been Kings Cross.

On of my pet stations got to be Chester, seen a lot more of it since I've been working there last year & also is the gateway to the North Wales line which I love to travel on if it is a good sunny day. Like the interesting platform layout of the station and the roof(s).

If it's a PET station, maybe I should go for CATford! Seriously though, although there's an awful lot of stations I'm fond of for various reasons, I'll still opt for Tilehurst, which is not only busy, it's got a great covered footbridge, is still largely original, and was the first place I ever went to see trains!

Hindley North was a nice little station, but it wasn't busy. I did like Wigan North Western, which certainly was.

Are these pet stations run by the RSPCA.
