Default Ruislip(s) Stations

Passing through Ruislip (by road) yesterday I kept passing stations. I've
just looked up how many Ruislips there a

Ruislip
Ruislip Manor
West Ruislip
Ruislip Gardens
South Ruislip

That feels like an awful lot of stations containing the town name for
somewhere so (relatively) small. In the same area 4 stations contain the
name "Sudbury"; and if you include Sudbury, Suffolk(?) you get another 5
total but I'm referring to a single town.

Is there another town of a similar size to Ruislip that has more named
stations?


Indeed there is, and not a million miles from Ruislip:

North Acton
South Acton
East Acton
West Acton
Acton Town
Acton Central
Acton Main Line

Any advance on seven?
