Following on from the Christmas Quiz 2012 here is another question that I hope will get some of your brains ticking.

What do the following stations have in common with each other?

Par, Ely, Rye, Wye, Ore, Ash, Ayr and Drem?

In order to allow as many people to give this a go, could people attempting to answer this please send your answers to me via pm and I will then confirm once I have picked up the pm if you are correct.

Correct answers mean no prizes :p

In this case that is sadly not the answer I was looking, however even I hadn't thought of them in that way.

Another wrong answer I'm afraid, Wye is only served by electric services :)

Another wrong answer, Wye is firmly situated within double track land, the nearest single line is between Appledore and Rye.
