Wrexham?

A wild guess at Liverpool Street given that there used to be a curve just short of the Underground station into the main station to allow through running onto the Great Eastern tracks from the present Circle Line tracks, which at their west end had a through connection at Paddington.
Open floor if I am correct.

Is correct.
The LMS ran from a separate station at Banbury (Merton St IIRC) to Bletchley

Thank you.
In the Rev. Awdry's Railway Series, the engines argue over the name of London's station on the "Other Railway". Duck insists it is called Paddington, whereas Gordon is adamant that it is Kings Cross.
Which station does Gordon actually go to when he visits London?

Duke of Edinburgh.
Gosh you're behind the times. The family name is now Windsor. Still, full marks for trying to be clever.

Indeed - The Queen stayed at the controls for the short journey between Green Park and Oxford Circus before inspecting the station and returning on the cushions

Open floor as I can't think of one.
(cough) arguably her maj didn't drive it, the Vicky line trains drive themselves. She pushed the door close buttons and then the train start button.
Know what you mean though.
