Hmmm, not sure what you mean by "main picture", but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt on this one: Station A: Shepherd's Bush (Central Line) - Pipe in passage from platforms to escalators [Chris M]  (click for a larger version) Which leaves you with "Station B" still to identify:  (click for a larger version) |

It is a "D&C" line station, but not that one.

For the quiz, there are now two Paddingtons. It had already been established that we were talking about a District & Circle station; only one of the three at Paddington matches that description.  High Street Kensington? |

Hmmmm, I wondered when someone would notice that!
It isn't HSK, which doesn't leave many!

Bayswater it is. I can't remember off the top of my head which platform it is and I'm on my phone so can't check the answer sheet easily.
As for Paddington, TfL reckon they have 2 stations with that name the one served by the H&C and extended Circle and the one served by the Bakerloo, District and circular bit of the Circle.

Weird...out of the four, Bayswater is my least-used. I'm not sure if I've ever had a reason to alight there.
When was the passageway connecting the Bakerloo ticket hall to the Circle/District at Paddington opened? I remember the former from visits in the '80s, but not the main entrance and gateline.
