LU works on a distances system, for instance: 2.27 is North Weald on the Central Line. All distances (apart from W&C) are measured using the Ongar distance system. Ongar being 0. The transfer points are where lines interchange, but not necessarily at physical connections (for instance, between District and Central is at Mile End). That should help you with an answer or two.
