My contribution tonight was going to include Llanfair pg and the text of
Queensland railway lines; both have been covered by earlier posters.

Where (in Australia) would one find the following station names:
Elizabeth
Churchill
Winston
Gloucester
Mountbatten
Corroboree
Victory
Utopia
Welcome
Worth While.

There are nationalities which regard the name 'Smith' as immensely funny.
Without consulting references, I have recalled:
* Australia: Smithfield, Smithton, Portsmith.
* Elsewhere: Hammersmith.

I have travelled to 'Woodville North No 18 Shed'.
