C - No idea but love what you've done with that one. I didn't plan that at all! I selected the background based on its location and that it would work in the shape needed. It wad only when I put the two together did I see the possibility of this - and that was just a case of minor adjustment to the scale of the main image (it's about a decade newer) and tweak the positioning after I saw how the car looked. Serendipity at about 11:30 last night! |

A insert-The Shambles in York, agree B is York Road. So, could it be the connection is 'York?'

Goldhawk Road for C

Location C: Goldhawk Road - bridge over Goldhawk Road [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) By my reckoning that leaves location D, inset C, the link and the odd one out left too find. |

That's the link, now which is the odd one out and why? The Shambles? There is no tranport running on it, down it, under it, over it? |

Conversely, it's also not a <somethin> Road as the others seem to be. Both options seem too obvious to me though...

The Shambles is one of the insets and not part of the link. Which of Elverson Road, York Road, Goldhawk Road and (Location D, which has not yet been identified) is the odd one out and why?
Also to find is inset C.

D is the entrance to Wandsworth Road. I think that B has to be the odd one out either because it's no longer open, the road it's named after is not featured in the picture or the road it's named after is no longer called 'road' (it's now York Way). I'm struggling to work out where inset C is though. Is it somewhere in Yorkshire, by chance?

Location D: Wandsworth Road - entrance from north side of Wandsworth Road [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) Link: These stations all share their name with the road they are located on except York Road which is on York Way [link suggested by Tubeboy in this thread] Inset C is not in Yorkshire, a bit more south. |

My earlier suggestion of Yorkshire was based on there being two other answers related to York and the fact that it looked like a northern station. However, on second thoughts, it looks more like a Great Western location. I'm going for Stapleton Road (keeping with the 'roads' theme).
