When was the last time a tube station was renamed for something other than
an external redefinition (e.g. "Heathrow Central" - "Heathrow Terminals

1,
2 & 3") or typographical simplicity (can't think of a tube, though on NR
"Boxhill & Westhumble" is now "Box Hill & Westhumble" in line with the

hill
in question)? And who would pay for it all?



Surrey Docks - Surrey Quays?


Aldersgate - Barbican?

Yes, i know it was officially Aldersgate and Barbican but the Barbican
bit was very rarely mentioned prior to the renamimg.
