Only locals and rail enthusiasts have heard of Shenfield.Â* This way,
tourists will know that it's somewhere near Stratford-on-Shakespeare.

Even journalists writing about rail have been known to describe
Crossrail as serving Sheffield.

On the other hand, routes like the #1 metro through Brussels cite
"Stockel" as the destination, and I've no idea where or what that is.


It's at the end of the line :-)


I was part hoping that it would be the shed as as translated to foreign.

Shed Stock Hall Stockel


Absolutely stockel reason why it should be.
