And don't forget Centrale in Croydon.


What's that named after?


The Centrale shopping centre. Sorry, "shopping and lifestyle
destination"http://www.centrale.co.uk


Tram information systems pronounce it as in Amsterdam, but buses seem to
say it as in Milton Keynes.


How do they say it in Milton Keynes?


And I was assuming it was meant to be Italian - Chentralay
