B - Canary Wharf Elizabeth Line.
I think the left inset is a Viking longboat sculpture in Iceland.

Well the 3 identified main locations all have OSIs with similarly named stations so that could be the link. It's very hard to get anything much out of the C picture though.

Is the link (as per xplaistow - "3 identified main locations all have OSIs with similarly named stations") in zone 2 ?.
I that case I'll have a stab at West Hampstead for C ?

C is not West Hampstead, but that would also fit the link.
Link: These are all zone 2 stations with out of station interchanges

Neither part of this OSI involves the Central line

Well we're steadily eliminating Zone 2 OSIs. Let's try Camden Road next.

It seems the station also needs to have a lift. Is it Kilburn?

The station does indeed need to have a lift (as it was photographed from the lift). It is not Kilburn, nor is it on the Jubilee line
