C is clearly a cross platform interchange with NR services from DLR (the red line gives it away) although I didn't spot the harris fencing before... or the bushes in the trackbed...
So somewhere like Royal Victoria
I go with Rich32 on D...
And is C the odd one out as it doesn't have an NR interchange (anymore)?

C - Greenwich D - Tottenham Hale Correct on both counts. Now to identify the link between them and the odd one out. |

They're all interchanges between TfL services and NR services:
Brixton is the odd one out because the two stations are completely separate
Old Street is the odd one out because the BR services are underground
Old Street is the odd one out because the BR services used to be London Underground services
Greenwich is the odd one out because both services are above ground
Greenwich is the odd one out because it's the only one with a cross-platform interchange
Greenwich is the odd one out because it's not served by London Underground
Tottenham Hale is the odd one out because the NR services use overhead power supply
Bet I still haven't got the right answer! :-D

You have got the right answer, but I'm not going to tell you which one just yet!

How Pythonesque! ;D
Erm, first I'll go for the Brixton answer - that the TfL and NR station are physically separate...

The answer as provided by Chris reads: All have direct interchange with National Rail services, except Brixton which has a walking distance interchange. If anyone commutes in on a mainline train to Victoria with the intention of getting on the Victoria line then if their train stops at Brixton they may well wish to get off there and get on the tube - it's the first station so one can get a seat and also avoid the general mania of Victoria Underground station. But they probably know that already! |
