It's four-part Friday! Identify these stations and the link between the four. Which one of the four is the odd one out? Location A:  (click for a larger version) Location B:  (click for a larger version) Location C:  (click for a larger version) Location D:  (click for a larger version) EDIT: It appears that the images are not yet on the server. As it wasn't long ago that Chris uploaded the 'card' with the question on, I can only assume that they are currently uploading and will appear above in the near future. |

The images are now working, cause of the problem was a typo or thinko on my part (both equally possible).

D - Paddington Praed Street?
Assuming C might be platform extension work somewhere on Tfl Rail, all locations to be served by Crossrail? Paddington odd one out as those platforms not served by Crossrail trains?

C is not platform extension work on TfL Rail. The photo dates from 2009. Location D: Paddington (Praed Street) - SSL platform roof [Chris M] (click for a larger version) The link is locations to be served by Crossrail, but Paddington is not the odd one out. Nor will Crossrail serve platforms 2 and 3 at Liverpool Street - they're LO platforms. |

The white rectangular shape in the bottom right corner appears to be a station name sticker. The writing is backwards and appears to end in 'ford', so maybe C is Stratford with 2009 being when the new NLL platforms were built?

Location C: Stratford - former London Overground platforms 1 and 2 being converted to DLR platforms 16 and 17 on 8 May 2009 [Chris M] The image above is unmodified, although it wouldn't be if I'd spotted what howda62 did! |
