I was wondering if this is more than coincidence - London is based around the Thames, by definition in a valley, so the hills would on the whole be away from the centre?

Apart from Tower Hill. Lol

Heathrow
Gatwick
Luton
Stansted
Southend
City

Plus bonus points for additional challenges.

Don't forget "London" Oxford Airport!

London underground
London Overground
DLR
Tfl Rail
Tramway
And Dangleway!

At least 2 day challenge I'd say!

This has certainly been discussed. Of course, this now includes a trip to and/or from Reading.

And London Biggin Hill. And "London" "Ashford" (Lydd).

Ah, no! "London Ashford" is closer to France then London!

Battersea Park has to be visited on the Overground challenge, but isn't on the Tube map. Should it be visited on the Full Tube Map Challenge?

And presumably, if it does, it's the only really awkward station as Olympia becomes a doddle with the overground?

Absolutely - and it's rather a long way from Ashford, let alone London! But, they call it London Ashford, so who am I to disagree.

Disappointingly they don't include transport options involving the RHDR, such as a cross country hike from Romney Sands!

Has anyone thought of doing the "Ton" challenge. Fastest time to do 100 different stations in the shortest time possible?
