One confusion that happened on several occasions was people arriving at
Hayes (Kent) wanting Hayes (Middlesex).
I saw that when I travelled to Orpington Hospital, where I worked at the
time. Very unhappy passenger, very late for appointment...
I remember meny years ago as a teenager trying to get a ticket to
Chelsfield
so close to my old workplace...
(where I lived) and being issued with one to Chestfield,
which I'm sure occasionally gets confused with Chesterfield and so life
goes on.
