I think I would agree with that. I can't think of anywhere else on the
Central with that configuration for a terminal and the staircase to the
right of the right hand train is also a pretty strong pointer. That
would be to reach the Chiltern Line platforms.

It certainly doesn't look like anywhere on the Northern or Jubilee
lines.

That was my initial instinct, too. It's clearly on the Central Line.

Yes, I'm almost certain it's West Ruislip (along with Stanmore about the
nearest thing I have to a "local station" on LU and one I use a lot).

But West Ruislip and Stanmore are no where near each other?

When you are starting from Birmingham (Hint: read Ian's sig!) the notion
of your nearest LU station covers quite a wide area

That's the reason! Depending on my point of origin and where in London
I need to be, my starting point varies between West Ruislip (or
occasionally Perivale, if it's the weekend) if I'm coming down the M40
and have somewhere vaguely on the Central Line to visit or Stanmore if
it's the M6/M1 and I've "anywhere else" top go in London.

I've also for various reasons had occasion to use Burnt Oak (through the
good offices of a utl regular's driveway!) and this weekend Highgate.

Bet you all *really* wanted to know that, of course!
