There appears to be an image issue ATM, in that the images don't appear to be on the server... which I hope he'll sort shortly Four locations, identify the link between them and the odd one out (click for a larger version) The locations are referenced according to the following diagram:

Ah, the Lewisham, Island Gardens dilemma is upon me once again ;D. Looking at some characteristics in the photo I'm 90% sure that B is Island Gardens.

Three guessed correctly, one still to get. Had we mentioned that one of the four is the odd one out? ;D Points today to pgb, Deep Level and mtmikethom, with comisserations to melikepie. Station A: Embankment - escalator to eastbound SSR [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Looking at some characteristics in the photo I'm 90% sure that B is Island Gardens. Station B: Island Gardens - roof of entrance building [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Station C: Bank - stairs to Northern Line from ticket hall [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Which leave still to get the link, the odd one out, and D. Have a clue: (click for a larger version)

D = Waterloo (above the ramp to the Waterloo & City line departure platform). Have some points! Your answer almost exactly matches the card - the difference being that I note the bridge as passing over stairs to a staff door, rather than over a ramp. The photo was taken on 31 January this year and I've not been back since, so I don't know which of us is correct. Just the link and odd one out to find now.

The link between them and the odd one out from the link? All but Embankment are step free for at least one line, and all but Island Gardens are interchanges served by the tube, and have escalators.

Is the link that they are all stations just before the line goes under the Thames.
Embankment - Northern and Bakerloo go southbound under the Thames Island Gardens - DLR southbound Bank - Northern and Waterloo and City southbound Waterloo - Northern, Bakerloo and Waterloo and city northbound
Hence is the odd one out Waterloo as its south of the Thames?
Alternatively it could be island gardens as it only has one line that crosses under the Thames while the others have multiple.
