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.

Wow, you've crossposted this to the dizzy heights of uk.railway *and*
misc.transport.urban-transit! Though perhaps without enough of an
explaination. For those who're a bit lost coming in late then I refer
you to the original thread entitled "The best non-interchange
interchanges" on uk.transport.london [1].

In reply to the above comments, Regents Park (Bakerloo line) and Great
Portland Street (Met/Circle/H&C lines) are exceedingly close, but given
there's a direct interchange between all theselines a mere one station
west at Baker Street there'd be little justification for spending money
combining these stations.

Just possibly the out-of-station 'distant interchange' walk between
Regents Park and Gt Portland St might be useful to rush hour commuters
looking to avoid the scrum, but I think it'd take longer.
