Er, Beckton is Kingston. (On the other hand, Wimbledon is Beckton.
And Plaistow is Wimbledon. Nothing is Plaistow, though.)


Actually, Stepney Green is Wimbledon -- Plaistow is Berrylands.

OTOH I'm a bit confused about Palace Gate. Presumably Crystal Palace is the
old high-level station, while Palace Gate is the existing low-level one?

Dogs is dogs, and cats is dogs, and squirrels in cages is parrots,
but this here turtle is a h'insect, and we won't charge you nothin'.
