Hum...
B is on the District Line - probably in south or west London. C might be Goerge V D reminds me of Greenford.
Is the link that all the stations have served temporarily as a terminus?

Apologies - I saw the train in B and thought it was D stock. It is A stock so that won't be be District line.
I'd better book myself in for an eye test if I can't tell the difference between those two stocks.

I'm going to say that Watford is the odd one out, as it is the only one not on the Central Line, therefore the 5th in the set is the only other "-ford" on the central: South Woodford
