You have three of the places but not the inset, nor link. So, to date we have: Station A: Queensbury - bottom of stairs to southbound Inset: Station B: Stamford Brook - bottom of stairs to westsbound Station C: Station D: Wood Lane - stairs from westbound *Click any of the images for a larger version* Still station C, the inset and the link to find.....

Are they all stations added after the line had been up and running?

The exact answer I was looking for was that the stations were all opened later than the ones either side of them, but you are close enough to get the points*.
Any takers on the inset?
*I was compiling a spreadsheet with correct answers on it, but the machine it was on has died so that project is on hold until I get it fixed or replaced. Don't hold your breath.

I owe this to Google: Clock Tower in Borough Gardens, Dorchester. I've learned an awful lot about clock towers around the country today.

I also went through every permutation in my favourite seacrh engine, Alta Vista, to try and work out where that memorial clocktower was! It looks as though it might be Bournemouth, but wasn't.

I owe this to Google: Clock Tower in Borough Gardens, Dorchester. Well Google is correct! I've learned an awful lot about clock towers around the country today. Any of it interesting?

I took me a good hour of searching to work out where in Dorchester it was - I took the photo in July 2004 and hadn't labelled it beyond "clock tower".

I too was hitting Google hard over this one, but without success on this occasion. This quiz must have caused havoc with the Google statistics - a sudden worldwide upsurge of interest in memorial clock towers!
