OK, something slightly easier for this one, named after a song on the eponymous 1983 album, "Genesis". Most original ...
Closing date is Saturday the 20th of February at 2030 hours GMT.

I will supply the correct answer? Well yes I suppose I will, as I took the photo and I know where it is.

I've never seen this place before in my life. Probably one of those rubbishy North London Line stations.

I think that he's referring to the concrete at the bottom left of the picture. I thought that it might have been a pavement, too.

Well as it happens it IS a pavement in the bottom right of shot.
This is Willesden Junction station, taken from the end of the station approach road which buses use to turn round Continuing along the road to the right of shot will bring you into Willesden TMD and also gains you access to the "Windy Bridge", a favourite haunt of freight train spotters.
The only correct answer was supplied by tangy, the rest of the entries being somewhat loserish with such submissions as:
barrykas - Finsbury Park
Going Underground - North Ealing
nozzacook - Kentish Town
starkey - Harold Hill
jamesthegill - Crouch Hill
I'm going to have to work harder to catch tangy out I think ...

Just realised that there's no such station at Harold Hill.
