I have written a piece for their site to show my gratitude to all entrants, but to reiterate this point here won't do any harm. I will make no apologies as I repeat myself here.
The interest was very impressive, I couldn't have imagined I'd get 100 individual entrants, let alone the 200 or more names I have to mull over! I would like to thank every single entrant for taking the time to submit a name. The full list of station names is shown below.
A few names crop up more than once, but this is just to illustrate how popular certain suggestions have been.
It will be a very difficult task to choose just one name for this station. JustTrains and I have therefore agreed to further the number of winning entries and copies from one to three, with the two other names going towards pre-existing stations. Scenery is non-existant in these locations and will therefore be controlled by the name I choose. I'll be in touch with the winning entrants (come the time) to say thanks and ask whether they'd like to dictate any specific scenery instructions.
I hope that by involving the community throughout the development of the route, this will prove to be a popular addition to our favourite Simulator that truly offers something more playable, inspiring and indulging than those already out there. Please spread the word!
News is due on their site some time tomorrow, all being well.
Some of the station names suggested are already in use in the route (e.g. Greystone) and had been named long before the competition opened. That's not saying the suggestion won't count for anything; the very fact that somebody suggested a name I've already got is comforting and they can assure themselves that they have helped me permanently name each respective station.
Good luck to every entrant, I will have a hard job picking the winner! Here is the list of all 227 names:
