Guess the City

Could easily be brum, or any other city with large victorian brick infrastructure. Surprisingly hard to find a road that follows the curve of an elevated railway like that though, and the old fence at the top and the overgrowth suggest it's not an actual in-use railway line.

Its two bridges isn't it, not one

Which means lines diverging, which would make sense if this is close to a station

I am not totally convinced the main wall taking up much of the picture is an elevated railway but I can't really justify that past saying the cast iron fencing seems odd for a railway (even disused) and I'd kinda expect to see arches in a railway bridge. I realise this is not much help.

(I mean it's quite likely it's a raised piece of railway, I'm just not sure it is)

if only those letters were slightly more legible; going on koogs' station code theory i've been going through this list: https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stations_destinations/48541.aspx (alphabetical by name not code) but no joy.

Guessing that the markings on the bridge on the background suggest it's at least low-ish, I've been trying to find an appropriate low bridge on here but I haven't got anywhere yet: https://www.truckingjobs.co.uk/2018/10/low-bridge-map-uk.html

it could be a tunnel?

(just because it looks so dark under there, must be hella wide)

lol uk, never change

Left-hand drive and English language signage. I guess we've already decided its UK.

I'm starting to think old airfield after all

those plants don't look very northern to me. trying to think of somewhere grim and railway oriented in the SW.

I've spent a lot of time on Google Street view looking at UK cities trying to find old brick walls near railroad underpasses. Definitely found some spots with a similar vibe, but so far no joy.

I'll add a third picture when I get home this evening

The van is about to turn into the warehouse place - same logo on both: LA??.

"LEAMINGTON ASS"

bournemouth

we're going to have to see the wall bruv

(there's a yellow bus in the background of second pic and googling yellow buses had bournemouth as the first hit. BRO = bournemouth?)

I was wondering about the bus and Christchurch but I guess they probably share

apparently BRO = Bridge Of Orchy station (in Argyll, SCO) & doesn't look like it's it

As promised, view #3

that building on the left is probably the big clue here, is that W a well-known logo in Britland?

That's an IMO car wash. There are 269 of them in the UK apparently.

i don't know if that was deliberate but making me click through ALL the storageking locations and have it be the very last one was mean.

wow!

Well done Koogs, no of course that was not deliberate!

This was to be the fourth post

storageking helpfully had images of the stores right there on the individual pages and a 'view on map' link. and most of them were just giant sheds on industrial estates.

now to find the railway bridge...

I mean it won't take you very long

was more about confirming my theory about the sign

and ofc, the second line was the important one. (BRB = British Railways Board)

Haha I just lurk on this thread bit when I saw photo #3 I was going to drop in "that weirdly reminds me of Worcester but you all think it's in other parts of the country so I trust you".

it's the street I grew up on. Nobody thinks Worcester looks like this, people just know the nice bits.

my bit of tolly is much nicer, but it's still tolly

I was looking at a lot of brick walls in Birmingham, so at least I wasn't too far away.

Nobody really seemed to have any real idea which part of the country it was in though, "Close to a station" was the only real consensus!

Big collective failure over not looking for the second row of three letters

I couldn't make them out - I somehow thought it was ENG OVV where it's actually BRB OWW :(

back to work

I see what looks like a US flag. Perhaps we are in Florida.

only one flag though

couldn't work out what the big pink penis was there for a moment

oh, two flags - anyway, yeah, Florida doesn't sound wrong - palm trees, pastel colors, holiday home type buildings - what does that concrete block say? K STREET ?

It’s going to turn out to be somewhere like Okinawa.
