Location A looks like the central line tunnel exit coming up at Leyton. Location B has a couple of those [quite rare now on LT] pre-fab ex-SR concrete platelayers huts next to the lines. The only place that I can recall seeing two together was Amersham.

Answer: Location A: Between Leyton and Stratford - view from eastbound train [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Location C: Between Limehouse and Shadwell - viaduct west of Branch Road [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Location D: Between Shepherd's Bush Market and Wood Lane - bridge over Wood Lane from Ariel Way [Chris M] (click for a larger version) Clue: Image for location B has not been modified, it’s not on the Metropolitan Line. Don’t forget the link and the odd one out.

Location B: Just south of Snaresbrook, ie. between Leytonstone and Snaresbrook. Location B: Between Leytonstone and Snaresbrook - Signal equipment room and road-rail vehicle access point west of Snaresbrook [Chris M] (click for a larger version) The Link: Betwwwn stations beginning with L and S. Link: These locations are between stations starting with L and S Odd on out: D, which is between between WL and SBM. Odd one out: Between Shepherd's Bush Market and Wood Lane. Any ideas why this was included as the odd one out rather than anywhere else?

Odd one out: Between Shepherd's Bush Market and Wood Lane. Any ideas why this was included as the odd one out rather than anywhere else? Before the opening of Wood Lane in 2008, it was between Shepherd's Bush Market and Latimer Road (i.e. between L and S, like the others)?

Brilliant shout!
Extreme pedantry: Strictly speaking, before the opening of Wood Lane in 2008, it was between Shepherd's Bush and Latimer Road. Shepherd's Bush didn't become Shepherd's Bush Market until Wood Lane station opened I believe.

Odd one out: Between Shepherd's Bush Market and Wood Lane, before Wood Lane was built, the next station was Latimer Road.
Well done!

Shepherd's Bush didn't become Shepherd's Bush Market until Wood Lane station opened I believe. Indeed. the opening and the renaming were both on 12 October 2008
