Gah! I just remembered Warren Street and Goodge Street.
I was *thinking* of Baker Street and Bond Street!
Back to the attic!

How about

Which is the only London Underground line which boasts two towns along
its' route where each town has precisely two stations? I believe the
answer is the Piccadilly with Ruislip/Ruislip Manor and Sudbury
Hill/Sudbury Town. The question may need tweaking to make it
clearer. I
used the word "precisely" to eliminate the 3 Hounslows but I'm not
sure
about use of "town".

There are several such station pairs on the District, namely Ealing,
Putney, Wimbledon, Dagenham, Upminster, Bow and conceivably Ham. Your
question doesn't specify that the line should have only a pair of
pairs.

Putney doesn't count as Putney Bridge station isn't in Putney.

I knew someone would say that. His example makes it clear that he
considers a town to "have" a station if the town name is in the station
name.

Ah, so this alleged definition would have Liverpool as a city wich "has"
a station called Liverpool Street? Hmm.

Poor analogy. No-one in Liverpool has Liverpool Street as their nearest
station. There are people in Putney who have Putney Bridge as their
nearest station. Putney Bridge station serves Putney, although obviously
it serves Fulham better.
