Default Can you identify this tube station from this arty picture

My first thought was Barons Court. I hadn't read your "clues" then but this
is in the likely area.

A Canadian posts the following picture he

with the caption:

"a metro station in london, england. unfortunately I don't remember
the name of the station."

And surprisingly none of the copmmenters so far have identified it.

OK, there are not many clues to go on, but I thought someone here might
have an idea. Vague suggestions so far have been Stamford Brook,
Turnham Green, Ravenscourt Park, the "District and Circle line" or
"Picadilly line".

Have fun,

Jonathan

I think it's Richmond (or possibly Wimbledon). The platform build
looks LSWR/Southern Region to me and then there's the matter of the
trainstop lights which you wouldn't get at a through station.

Its not Wimbledon, the trainstops are the wrong way round. From the
perspective of them it looks like there are three lines as well,
Wimbledon only has two.

There are four Underground tracks at Wimbledon. If you are stood on
one platform looking perpendicular to the tracks, you can only see
three at any one time.

I--------------------------- track
================ platforms 1/2

================ platforms 3/4
