This is a real sign at a real train station in a real town in Wales. What I like best is the phonetic pronunciation. When a word reaches 58 letters, there's no amount of help in English or any language that's going to help you there. The English translation is: St. Mary's Church of the White Hazel Near to the Whirlpool of Llantisilig of the Red Cave.

I though Hoyt-Schermerhorn Station on the A line in Brooklyn was a mouthful. (Pronounced by locals as Hoit Skirmehaun)
