Hi Jez,

To be fair, it was known as "Springvale" for some years and only recently
(~2 years) changed to "Penistone" when the operator changed hands. It does
show that a feature thought to be fairly static can actually change over
time.

Anyway, thanks for publicising the HWRC list that lives on the Wiki. I'll
cross reference as many as I know in my area.

Regards,
*Paul*
