Station Train Announcers' Compeition

This year's annual Train Station Announcers' Competition closing date will be Christmas Eve, with the results published in January 2009.

To remind you all of the judging criteria:

  1. Clarity, tone and volume of announcements;
  2. Frequency and relevance of announcements;
  3. Capacity to use regional variations and dialects, along side the information given.

Please rate yuor favourite stations on the following scale against the above criteria:

  1. Excellent in all ways. Should have been on the radio;
  2. Average at most things. Occasionally forgets to announce or stutters, splutters and coughs;
  3. Truly awful - and in many cases loving it.

An Example is below:
