October Quiz - day 18 [Solved]

[Chris M]

My computer keyboard has gone from intermittently working to completely not working. This means that until I can get a replacement installed I am unable to produce and upload quizzes. A replacement is on order and should arrive tomorrow (DPD willing) and if my friend is available to install it for me then normal service should resume from tomorrow evening but I am unable to promise.

Apologies for the disruption. Full refunds will be given on application to rincew1nd.

[rincew1nd]

Please note, as I am about to leave the country all refunds will be paid in either Euro, Danish Krone or Swedish Krone depending on where I am at the time.

Failing that Colin D may be able to provide a refund in Canadian Dollars.

[Colin D]

I have a strange feeling the applications might will get lost on the way to Canada 😎

[rincew1nd]

I take it the application letters will be conveyed on the Royal Mail Ship Titanic.

I was thinking more along the lines of getting them redirected to whistlekiller2000😂

Chris M's abysmal attempt to get a day off by claiming technical difficulties plumbs new depths in the murky history of the Quiz. I'm not too sure I want to read details about why his laptop keyboard has seized up but I am happy to finance a USB keyboard to mitigate this type of disaster if it occurs again. In the meantime I must press members not to take the law into their own hands and form a disorderly lynch mob.......

B is Stoke Newington and probably C is London Fields I think

[Chris M]

Location B: Stoke Newington - Northbound platform [Deep Level] [Chris M]

C is not London Fields

[elsombernie]

C = Cambridge Heath then.
Looks like Ash Grove bus garage on the extreme left.

[Chris M]

Location C: Cambridge Heath - seats on southbound [Chris M]

I think A is St. James Street.

[Colin D]

Answer:
Location A: St. James Street - top of stairs to northbound platform [Chris M]

Now all we need is the link between them, the odd one out and which station should be here instead of the odd one out

[bigvern]

Edmonton Green is odd station out these, each station is 2 stations ahead from previous so Hackney Downs should be included. From Liverpool Street then 2nd station is
Cambridge Heath, Hackney Downs, Stoke Newington, St James Street

You've kinda got this, but not exactly. It is to do with being two stops, but there is a key location you've not spotted.

Edmonton Green is the odd one out.

[bigvern]

White Hart Lane, as all are two stations from an interchange station

[Chris M]

White Hart Lane is not the 5th in the set.
They are all two stations from an interchange station (except Edmonton Green), but that's essentially a coincidence of the link not the link itself.

[xplaistow]

This might just be me being clever but:

These stations are all 2 stops from Hackney Downs. Edmonton Green should be replaced with Liverpool Street as it is 2 stops away for the Chingford trains that usually run non-stop to Bethnal Green.

[Chris M]

That's what we're looking for!
Link and odd one out: These are all two stops from Hackney Downs except Edmonton Green.
Fifth in set: Liverpool Street (LO)

I've just realised the bonus question never got asked though, so: Which image is the odd one out?

Cambridge Heath image is the Southbound platform, the others are Northbound

[Chris M]

Spot on.
