Given this new station on the H&C seems to be literally a stones throw

An alternative view is that White City should be revert to its old name
given that the stadium is long gone.


Seems sensible. Though is that area now known as white city to the
locals? Anyway , having 2 stations seperated by 50 metres being given
different names seems absurd especially since Hammersmith station on
the H&C shares its name with Hammersmith on the District & Piccadilly
even though they're physically separate.
