I know that happens.


Really? It's not as if either are major tourist destinations...

Ditto Edgware Road and Edgware, which are
equally far apart.


I know that happens a lot, along with Finchley/Finchley Road.


....with hilarious consequences. (I always used to think the area
immediately north of Swiss Cottage was Finchley, on account of that
station name.) At least with those two examples, the stations are on
different lines. I can't think of any examples on the same line at the
moment.
