You have three out of four so far, that leaves location C, link and the odd one out to find. Answer: Location A: Bank - tile artwork on westbound Central line platform [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) Location B: Epping - Looking at underground roundel from road bridge [ caravelle ] (click for a larger version) Location D: Ongar - exterior [ londonstuff ]  (click for a larger version) Clue: Location C:  (click for a larger version) |

Ah, for some reason I was adamant there was a railway line behind that fence but now I've seen the unmodified version I will go with Newbury Park.

I'm guessing the link is going to be "Central Line" with Ongar the odd one out (closed).

Location C: Newbury Park - bench on inner rail platform [Chris M]
The Central line is indeed relevant to the link, but Ongar is not the odd one out.

Bank as it's not a former Great Eastern Railway station?

Bank is the odd one out, but that's not the reason I had in mind.

Bank has never been used to terminate trains?

Bank is a former terminus - before the line was extended.

How about "Bank *cannot* (currently) be used as a reversing point"?

How about "Bank *cannot* (currently) be used as a reversing point"? Yes, Bank is the only one of the stations that is not currently used as a scheduled reversing point. |

Then the original question of which is the odd one out doesn't apply as it's no longer part of the Central Line

The full version of the answer is "These are or were all termini of the Central Line. Bank is the only one that is not currently used as a scheduled reversing point".
