Bill Hayles has a lovely story of confusion between Oval and Yeovil. ;-)

The best one (possibly apocryphal) I have heard was a foreign woman at
Paddington who wanted to get to Turkey (presumably via Heathrow) but
was sold a ticket and put on the train to Torquay.

Then there are always the people who arrive in Leeds (Yorkshire)
looking for the castle (Kent).

Someone else posted here of the search for "Fort Neath". Of course, what
they really wanted was "Thornton Heath" :-)
