Some Roadal etc stations are named after roads which have changed their
name since the station was initially named. You may find that what was once
called Preston Road is now Preston Street or Preston Avenue - I think
quite a lot of roads were renamed in the mid 1900s to avoid duplicate road
names (and hence confusion of postal addresses).

Queen's Road Battersea became Queenstown Road, both in fact and as a station name.
