They've put it slightly in the wrong place, though - the real Union

Probably laziness -- this seems to be the map they modified:

It would have been easier to just plonk their Union Street station in
the gap between Borough and Elephant & Castle than to rename Borough to
Union Street and move Borough to the left.
