Where am I on the tube map?

Can you identify a station from just a paving slab? Sadly, some people can

Are you at a station with three or more vowels in its name?

Are you at an interchange station (with another LU, NLR, NR, DLR line).

Are you on either the Central or the Jubilee lines?

Are you on the DLR or Overground but not on the Underground.

I doubt you'll get an answer to this, as he hasn't logged on since last year.

And even if he comes back, he's probably forgotten where he was anyway...

Well, we know he's at one of:

Warwick Avenue
Maida Vale
Kilburn Park
Belsize Park
Tufnell Park
Mornington Crescent
Clapham South

and perhaps

Hampstead (does not contain three distinct vowels)
Clapham North (ditto Hampstead)
Clapham Common (ditto Hampstead)
Camden Town (does interchange between Northern and Northern Line count?)
Kennington (ditto with Camden Town)

To be honest, that's good enough for me. Also, if he's on a deep level line at a non-interchange station, how can he possibly be on the DLR or Overground?

What is LO/DLR (sub-surface/deep level)? I would say neither

I don't understand the question. They're not underground railways (the East London line notwithstanding).

Well, whatever they are, they certainly aren't deep level (the question was are they deep level and the answer was yes)!

Besides, we aren't getting this answered so it's beside the point.
