Is D just north of Canning Town, maybe from car park in Manor Road of Wickes. Homebase or whatever it is now.

They all have a somewhat earthly feel - Green, Black Horse, Heath, Star

This isn't a question about feelings (have we ever had a question about feelings?)
It's not about the station's name.

(have we ever had a question about feelings?) No. Looking back through the database, the closest is probably "stations mentioned in songs" used on 21 August 2008. I categorise the links as being of one or two types, the ones used to date are: - Access
- Bus
- Culture
- Future
- Geography
- History
- Interchanges
- International
- Lines
- Local area
- Name
- National Rail
- Open/Close
- Platforms
- Quiz
- River
- Roads
- Service
- Station building
- Trains
- Zones
I don't object to any other type of link, it just means that I haven't thought of any - if you'd like links based on feelings then feel free to suggest them!

I think we had one about smells once, or maybe that was simply a post-quiz conversational tangent.

There was a thread about smells a few months back, but I don't recall it being related to the quiz and the word "smell" doesn't appear anywhere in the quiz database. It's a good idea for a future link though!

Barriers - all have some sort of barrier/separation from track?

Barriers - all have some sort of barrier/separation from track? Not quite sure I get your jist here, surely the only stations with barriers to separate the station from the track are those on the JLE with the PEDs? Either way, it's not the answer on the card; this is a geography question: What links: - Between Blackhorse Road and Walthamstow Queen's Road
- Stepney Green
- Hampstead Heath
- Between Canning Town and Star Lane
