C (main) is Colindale NB starting signal.
Not sure about A - Hammersmith H&C per chance?
Not sure about B - North Harrow maybe?

I'll leave this a bit longer to give the early birds a pop at it too due to the late start.
Still plenty to have a go at!

Okey cokey, you've had enough time with this now. This is where we're at: ADeep Level gets the points for: Location A: Watford Junction - platforms 2 and 3 buffers [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) However, the inset is still available. Bjeebeelodo takes these points for: Location B: Canons Park - station reflected in bus stop advert [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) There is nothing on my card for the background/inset, and I don't drink beer, but as @progressingnicely is the only person to identify the bottles you can have a demi-point. CHome turf for me this one, even my father (not a member) spotted part of it! The points go to yerkes for the main: Location C: Colindale - Signals AM2 and AM3 [londonstuff]  (click for a larger version) and points to brigham for not only spotting the location, but also the version of Steam Roller pictured in the inset: Inset C: Wallis & Steevens 'Advance' steam roller 7941 and miscellaneous locomotives - Abbey Light Railway, Leeds [Rincew1nd]  (click for a larger version) [Shameless Plug] City of York No3 is the only steam roller on Twitter and as this is a District Line forum, all those mebers with a Twitter profile who support the merits of green engines should follow it![/Shameless Plug] <ahem> DFirst in was v52gc who spied: Location D: Highgate - main entrance [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) All of which leaves us with still to getInset A:  Along with what links - Watford Junction
- Canons Park
- Colindale
- Highgate
and the fifth in the set. (click for a larger version) |

Watford Junction is 0 stations from a terminus, Watford Junction
Canons Park is 1 stations from a terminus, Stanmore
Colindale is 2 stations from a terminus, Edgware
Highgate is 3 stations from a terminus, Mill Hill East
I think that, as the termini are progressing east, the next is High Barnet, and the fifth in the set is the station 4 stops down the line, Finchley Central
