There is no mention of an interchange with White City Central Line
station next door. Has this been dropped? If not, why isn't the new
station to be called "White City"?

The change to the name of Shepherd's Bush H&C station to Shepherd's
Bush Market is a very sensible development to reflect the distinct
nature of the surrounding area and also the separateness from the
Central/"London Overground" station at the other end of Shepherd's Bush
Green.

On the other hand, it seems that by calling the new H&C line station
"Wood Lane", TfL/LU are missing a trick. IMO this passes up a great
chance to publicly embed a new H&C/Central line interchange by
referring to the new station as "White City", even if the connection is
on-street. I'm also very surprised that Westfield (the developers of
the adjacent retail complex) are not insisting on "White City" since
they are paying for it.
