To be fair, Dagenham Heathway and Elm Park were good guesses. Does anyone know easy ways of telling them apart?

[jbom]

They are indeed similar. However, the handrail at Dagenham Heathway is of a quite different, more modern looking, design.

Yeah, they've got different words on the roundels.

Neil also said it shouldn't have a NR station code so that rules out Willesden Junction (WIJ) straight away....

[Edgemaster]

My reasoning was:

Tricky one, since several stations have this type of ramp leading to the platforms (I count 3).

I quickly ruled out Dagenham Heathway since it has a double central handrail (as far as I can tell from online sources).

This left me with Elm Park and Upney, which I found hard to differentiate due to an apparent lack of photos of these stations online.

I believe Elm Park's ramp construction retains original features, unlike the more modern Upney one.
