This may be a silly question, but, when doing the alphabet challenge, can you use DLR, LO, TfL Rail or Tramlink stations? If it us silly, feel free to delete this topic. I was just wondering as it would speed up my route at a couple of points!

The aim of this challenge is to visit a London Underground station beginning with every letter of the alphabet (except J, X, Y and Z. There are no LU stations beginning with these letters)
To count for the challenge, the stations must be Underground. Other public transport routes may be used between those stations but will not count towards visits.

Ok, thanks. And no thanks (it makes my route longer, but thanks!)!

And for further clarification, that's Underground with a capital U (i.e. anywhere on the 11 lines) rather than underground with a small u which would restrict the number of stations somewhat....

That would mean no I,D or U to name some letters you couldn't do!
