Great Portland Street to Regent Street, similarly close.

It is Regent's Park. Marylebone Road/Euston Road needs some subway
station rationalization. There are so many missed interchange
opportunities.

One interchange that was, and maybe yet to come back is Primrose Hill
and Chalk Farm. In fact they were so close it is a wonder they were
never made into and interchange.

I'd suggest Walton and Rice Lane (nee' Preston Road) on the Merseyrail
Northern Line; the stations are very close to each other (closer
than Garston and Allerton were before Liverpool South Parkway, I
reckon). They could easily be made into one interchange station with a
couple of footbridges and paths, I reckon -- the Kirkby branch and
Ormskirk branch platforms wouldn't be much further apart than (say)
getting across the Shipley triangle!

(Were they ever one station?)
