Original Heardle - No idea. Completely unknown to me
60's heardle, Four seconds. Ages since I listened to that.
70's heardle, Instant recognition but ten seconds before I could put a musician and title to it. Frustrating.
80's heardle Six seconds. Always liked this as I had a girlfriend of the same name.

Optional Bonuses
90's Heardle Nope. Liked one of theirs but hadn't heard that one
00's Heardle Thought I knew it, I was listening to that when the towers fell (9/11) but further exploration revealed that I was wrong, very wrong. Never heard it.

Very poor from me, but understandably so, it being Heardle USA today (apart from the 00's), and I regard getting a 60's one which Mick didn't as a decent effort even if it took 17 seconds :-D . Was recued by the optionals to a 3 out of 6.

Bit of a follow up quiz on my heardle results pic today

Come on folks, there is more to the Pickled Egg Quiz than just doing the Heardles.

It thrives on the odd genuine puzzler, but it needs one important active ingredient...partipation :!:
So where is today's station :?: I'll give you a clue with every guess if it helps and here is the bigger picture.
Give it a go...where's this then?

Been busy today!! I'd say that was a London terminus, either Paddington or St Pancras International? :-D

If it was a picture of a trolley sticking out of a wall I would of got it, but apart from that I'm useless at stations even though I'm a train commuter.
