Great picture, but I have no idea.

Just doing a map of stations used so far, and there are five that have been used more than once: Ickenham, Warwick Avenue, North Greenwich, Gloucester Road and Acton Town.

There has only been five Northern line stations used, compared to 19 on the Piccadilly and 11 on the Met line - although four of those are on the shared Rayners Lane to Uxbridge line. The District line has had 12 different stations guessed, although the Wimbledon branch is untouched, and nothing past East Ham has been submitted (despite me putting Elm Park as half the filenames!). The Jubilee line has had 8 stations submitted* and even the East London Line had two whereas the Victoria line hasn't had any. The Central line has only had 6 - half of which were on the Hainault loop! The Hammersmith and City has only had one (East Ham) and the Bakerloo has had four. Not forgetting the dear old DLR which has had the same number.

How long til there's something decent on TV?

The girlfriend's in Italy, so I've been bored stiff if anyone's paying attention, I've let slip a huge clue as to the identity of the above station...

It was tough with it being taken after dark giving no land marks around the station.

The station was Ruislip Manor. The picture was taken by Deviantart user tevekinhell, and entitled "Lonely Station" - find the original here. After Uxbridge, Ickenham and Ruislip this is the fourth station of 7 along the Rayner's Lane to Uxbridge branch - three of the four have been posted by myself, owing to having a friend living there for Uni I've spent more time than I care to think about on tubes going there.

I was pretty lucky with this one as the first station I decided to check against came up trumps so it was just good luck that I found it was Ruislip Manor as really there was quite alot of stations I felt it could of been

[tubeguru]

Is it me or is the photo competition becoming decided on who can first find the image on a public photo sharing website?

[joy54]

The majority of PQ's I've entered I have had a good idea of the station but double check with photos on the net. Although I confess a few have just been through research and clues in the picture e.g. the foreign photos
