I'm guessing the initial letters spell out "April Fool". So I'll go for G being Oakwood and H Oval.

I think B is Paddington (Praed Street). +1 for Anerley, Rickmansworth, Oval and "April Fool". G isn't Oakwood though, it's Osterley.

That was a 50-50 shot from me - I guessed it had to be one of the two, but don't know either station well enough!

Thinking about it, I reckon that F must be Farringdon which will give us the full set:
Anerley Paddington Rickmansworth Ickenham Leyton
Farringdon Osterley Oval Limehouse

Thanks so much for all the effort you put into this, Chris M. Even after all these years there’s still new ideas and challenges to keep us all on our toes. I’m sure the wider membership appreciate your dedication just as much. Thank you!
