Try again, 7 Peter West OBE, named class 150 units.
| Re: AQ - Which is next in the sequence? Posted by grahame at 16:33, 4th December 2025 | |
Just 1. and 5. to go ... and 6 to finish off.

11, 22, 33, 44 so next is 55 (Cannon Street - Gravesend or Maidstone West via Lewisham and Sidcup)

1. Southampton Airport (and TransWilts links to it)
Wow, yes, you are correct. Why
2 is indeed 'Avenger' - Warship names
3 is Sir Robert Reid - chairs of British Railways Board
4 - CM is a good answer as would be BY or KE - first and last letters of express stops out of Paddington
5 ??
6 Cannon Street - Gravesend or Maidstone West via Lewisham and Sidcup - head codes. My understanding is that early southern units carried a set of stencils numbed 0 to 9 to make uo 2 digit head code so that the multiples of 11 were left out until the Hastings units came along ...
7 Peter West, OBE

5 something to do with Swindon bus routes?

That's what I worked out too. But the sequence of four that best matches the clues has no fifth member!

2, 14, 1, 11, x
I have heard of platform zero, but not a bus.

Yes I have been working on that if they are routes from the bus station
ah yes its Wroughton
| Re: AQ - Which is next in the sequence? Posted by ellendune at 22:39, 4th December 2025 | |
5 is not the Route numbers but the stands they leave from in the bus station U, V, W and X so the next is Y from where the No 9 goes to Wroughton.
