It's four part Friday, time to give the grey matter a workout Question: Identify these four locations and the link between them, and the fifth in the set  (click for a larger version) Should be a diagram to help identify locations but I'm unable to get the link working at this time. Hopefully Chris or rincew1nd along soon to help out this rookie  |

They all look like DLR stations to me but that can't be the link because that is too easy

C is so obviously Gallions Reach the area at the bottom of the stairs to the platforms First I thought Royal Victoria, but when I saw your comment I could easily recognise it. It is just on the edge of the roundaout. |

I guess the connection is they all stand on the site of former closed mainline rail stations, possibly ones all opened by the GER.

Is D mudchute? Probably not, but worth a punt.

It is just on the edge of the roundaout. I instantly recognised the red tower in the background  |

You have three out of four, that leaves D, the link and the fifth in set to solve Answers: Location A: Shadwell - Looking west [ mrfs42]  (click for a larger version) Location B: Stratford - under new bridge from Overground platforms [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) Location C: Gallions Reach - lift to Beckton-bound platform [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) Due to technical difficulties the clue version for D will be arriving shortly...I hope. |

Shouldn't location C be D? (D has been identified) or am I not awake yet

 Surely this is D, wherever it is. Can I change my guess to Shoreditch High Street? |

OK, lets try this again Answers: Location A: Shadwell - Looking west [ mrfs42] (click for a larger version) Location B: Stratford - under new bridge from Overground platforms [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Location C: Gallions Reach - lift to Beckton-bound platform [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Location D: Shoreditch High Street - south end of station box from by old station [Chris M]  All locations identified, just the link and the fifth in the set to find. Still a broken link for Gallions Reach |
