This is a cryptic version of the "Where am I" quiz found at http://www.railpage.com.au/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=153509#153509

PROCEDURE:
* Person who's turn it is picks a location but doesn't tell anyone what that location is.
* They ask a cryptic question about this location.
* When someone gets the current question right, they get the points, and get to pick the next location.

RULES:
* Only 1 guess per question.
* Location can be station, or signal box.
* Location must be within the metcard area (includes Melton, Sunbury, Craigieburn, and Stony Point).
* Location must be current and in use or at least available for use.

LEADERBOARD:
1 point: Deblaz, ShaunDXB.


NOTE: Only 1 question.

So the questions have to be cryptic, as in cryptic crossword?

(It's not obvious from the above).

This thread is to stop the recent string of cryptic questions like the ones in the other thread.

Do the second and third clues have to be cryptic too?

And who's "turn" is it?

Deblaz had the last question in the other thread, but I guess as his question was cryptic it should move to this one......i think.

If his question does move to here, what's going to happen on the other thread?

Ok in this quiz there is only 1 question per location. Whoever asks a question first can have the turn.

But you still say "only 1 guess per question" Smile

Okay, here goes an easy one, for xxx points (however many that is):

I think having both "where am I" threads will be very interesting!

OK my guess...

Williamstown?
