Penrith North Lakes is also a DfT category "D" station that was opened in 1846.

 

[Springs Branch]

Kingston is another three-platform station where only two of the platforms are used by normal scheduled passenger services.

Strawberry Hill is another station on the Kingston Loop Line.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

The station at Berrylands also has the name of a fruit as part of it's name.

South Kenton is also a DfT category "E" station that was opened in 1933.

 

[LUYMun]

South Kenton is one station that the London Overground shares the track with the London Underground, in this case it is the Bakerloo line, between Queens Park and Harrow & Wealdstone (and until 1982, further to Watford Junction and Croxley Green TMD). Another station that fits this category is Kew Gardens, where the London Overground shares tracks with the District line between Gunnersbury and Richmond.

Woolston is also a Grade II listed railway station.

 

[Springs Branch]

South Bermondsey is another DfT Category E station which opened in 1866.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Motspur Park was also the scene of a rail accident in 1947.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Elmers End station is also within London Fare Zone 4.

 

[LUYMun]

Elmers End was formerly a terminus for the Addiscombe branch shuttle, which has since been closed and partially taken over by the Croydon Tramlink. Another railway line that has since been closed and taken over tramlink was the West Croydon to Wimbledon line, closing on the same day as the Addiscombe branch.

Vauxhall is also a station with a high DfT category rating of "B".

 

[Springs Branch]

London Waterloo East is also classified as a London Terminal for ticketing purposes despite, like Vauxhall, not being the terminus of any trains.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Old Street is also part of the London Station Group.

 

[LUYMun]

The Northern City line, formally the Moorgate line, is a commuter line currently operated by Great Northern. Until 1975, it was part of the London Underground's Northern line (and before the 1930s was part of the Metropolitan Railway) known as the Highbury Branch. It ran between Moorgate and Finsbury Park until 1964 when the Northern City platforms were given over to become part of the Victoria line. Its terminus remained at Drayton Park, although plans in the 1930s, known as the Northern Heights Programme, would've built an extension for Northern City trains to travel to High Barnet or Alexandra Palace (and not Bushey Heath as some had predicted).

Finsbury Park was served frequently by class 313 units until their withdrawal from the route at the end of 2019. Meanwhile, elsewhere in the country, Hove station remains frequently served by 313s.

Chichester is also a station on the West Coastway line

Portslade is on the West Coastway

Portslade is on the West Coastway

Hello and welcome to the forum! Just to let you know, we have a convention in this thread that associations should not be the same as the previous one. In this case, because Chichester was associated to Hove by the fact that it is on the West Coastway, you would have needed to come up with a different association for the next post. Here's a valid association with Chichester:

Stroud also has two platforms both covered with large canopies.

Please feel free to make another post, following on from Stroud (or whatever the next poster does, if you're not the first to post after this message)

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Hopefully not too similar to ones we've done before. I say a station and the person below would say another station that has something in common with it. It doesn't have to be unique, but try and make it as different as possible and please ensure that all associations are rail related: a separate game exists for non rail related links.

This extract from the very first posting on the thread will be useful for new contributors to be aware of.

Stroud also has two platforms both covered with large canopies.

Stroud shouldn't be confused with the closed north London station Stroud Green. Likewise, Hindley shouldn't be confused with the closed Hindley Green.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Accrington is also a DfT category "E" station that was opened in 1848.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

Burnley Barracks was also opened by the East Lancashire Railway.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Perranwell is also a single platform station with the lowest DfT category rating of F2.

 

[Springs Branch]

A slightly busier station which also opened in 1863 is Clapham Junction.

 

[EbbwJunction1]

In May 1965, Clapham Junction A Signal Box suffered a partial collapse, which resulted in many of the services from the station to (amongst other places) Windsor and Eton Riverside being cancelled.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Falmouth Docks is also a terminal station of a branch line.

 

[Springs Branch]

For most of its life, today's Falmouth Docks station was named just Falmouth, the suffix being added in the BR era to distinguish it from a new station in the town. The same thing happened when newcomer Salford Crescent opened and the venerable Salford was re-named Salford Central.

 

[Xenophon PCDGS]

Farnworth was also opened by the Manchester, Bolton and Bury Railway in 1838.

 

[D6130]

Dalreoch is also situated close to a twin-bore tunnel.
