Retford

Posted in Crap Towns Archive on 4 August 2005

This place simply doesn’t exist! I regularly travel by train from Leeds to London and I have never once seen anybody get on or get off at Retford. I reckon they just prop up some old stage scenery by the platform to trick us into believing there is a town there because it is roughly half way between Leeds and London and breaks the journey up nicely.
