Trivia question.

1) The two stations nearest each other.

2 ) The shortest journey on the underground.

3) The end of the line that is geographically nearest to the centre of London.

 

[Norman Potting]

Covent Garden and Leicester Square (both 1 and 2 surely?)
3) Bank - Waterloo and City

..And I will raise you what is the longest distance journey between two adjacent stations.

 

[Sussex Nomad]

Covent Garden and Leicester Square (both 1 and 2 surely?)

The only other that would come close (Q2) are Charing Cross and Embankment.

Edit: meant q1.

Northfields and south Ealing

 

[clapham_gull]

Nearest stations Charing Cross and Embankment.

Shortest Journey Covent Garden to L Sq.

Longest Journey between two stops ? Possibly between Finsbury Park and Seven Sisters.

So still geographically nearest end of line.

Charing Cross underground was originally Trafalgar Sq and Embankment was Charing Cross I believe.

Something like that. I know Traf Sq was joined to Charing Cross at some point.

Makes sense.

Euston and Euston square must be the two closest but not on the same line

They are pretty close, my nearest and most used stations, actually Mornington Cres is my closest but it's Zone 2 and I'm a cheapskate.

Have you walked from Charing Cross to Embankment ?

I raise you the distance between Wood Lane and White City.
