Gunnersbury is the only one I am sure of as well.
Is the link something to do with same-platform interchange between underground and overground?

Let's have a punt then that B is Harlesden, they're same-platform interchanges in alphabetical order and the 5th would be Kensal Green, with Highbury the odd one out as it involves separate platforms despite them being next to each other.

You have everything but the reason why Highbury & Islington is the odd one out. Answer: Location A: Gunnersbury - car park ramp adjacent to station (click for a larger version) Location B: Harlesden - ramp at north end of southbound platform  (click for a larger version) Location C: Harrow & Wealdstone - ramp to platform 6 (click for a larger version) Location D: Highbury & Islington - stairs from southbound Victoria line and National Rail to exit (click for a larger version) Answer: These are consecutively named LU stations with LO interchange, the fifth in the set is Kensal Green. Highbury & Islington odd one out, but why? |

Is Highbury and Islington the only one of these stations where the underground platforms are actually underground?

LU/LO don't share the same tracks?

Three are pictures of ramps, and H&I is of stairs??? Takes the points! The question was which image is the odd one out, not which location. Well done. |
