D could be Canning Town (or it could be Liverpool Street!) D inset is Canning Dock
C inset is Lancaster
A inset is Guidhall Lane in Leicester
So the link is the background matches the station

B is London Fields so I think the link is English cities beginning with L (and D is Liverpool Street not Canning Town).

B looks familiar to me, is it right by the Thames close to Kingston Bridge and the shopping centre? Not sure what it is called.

Link: These are stations with names including cities starting with L [idea by xplaistow ] I'm going to be completely honest with you, I remember coming up with that idea but I have no recollection of submitting it. Oops. I'm surprised I didn't make any kind of note that I'd done so. I just checked in my PMs and apparently it was over 2 years ago so that'd be why I don't remember it.
