To think that I put Totteridge and Whetstone. I live not two miles from Ruislip! Oh the shame...

I thought it was Croxley, although thinking about it now, Croxley doesn't have a bridge like that in the background; it has its ticket hall there instead, with a set of stairs for each platform.

It was the blue stripes on the poles that confirmed to me it was a Piccadilly line station although I did also consider stations at the east end of the Central line as they do seem similar to this.

Aaaaah, I hadn't thought of that!

I initially thought it was a station with a long name, because the nearest roundel looks like it should have two lines of text (but it doesn't!). King's Cross though?! Name yourself, answerer!

I'll hold my hands up to Snaresbrook, must say I was convinced that it was an Eastern Central Line station!

My guess was Chorleywood, chosen entirely on gut feeling when looking at the photo.

I chose North Ealing based on the station building, footbridge and curve of the track.

Yup, if the person who posts King's Cross wants to come forward fine, but I'm not going to reveal who it was myself (and not just because I've deleted all my PMs but because it's not my decision to make).

I really was enjoying the geographic diversity of the answers though - some stations there that made me think "Where the heck's that? That's not a real station, is it?" :D
