The Cheshire Lines Comittee was the second-largest joint railway in Britain. The largest joint railway was the Midland and Great Northern Joint Railway (MGNJR), which some of its line closed in 1959. Some of its remaining open stations include Sheringham.

The next rail bridge upstream from the Barnes Railway Bridge is the Kew Railway Bridge, which when you take the railway out the middle becomes Kew Bridge, which interestingly is not the same line that goes over the bridge!

Hackney Central is connected to Hackney Downs by a direct passenger walkway linking the two stations, which was (replacing an earlier such link) opened in July 2015. This walkway means passengers do not have to exit on to the street in order to continue their onward journey.

I don't understand.
Rules:

The link you have drawn is that both stations are served by a bus route. That is nothing to do with railways, rail etc.

Well I don't really see how it's any different from these association either:

Heath High Level is another Transport for Wales station where another station can be viewed directly under it (you can view Severn Tunnel Junction from Caldicot, you can view Heath Low Level from Heath High Level).

The other station that serves Heath is Heath Low Level.

As it's the same priniciple, there is another station served by X service.

But I'll strike through my post.

Between 1926 and 1981 services from Barking did not terminate Gospel Oak. Instead, they were diverted from Upper Holloway via an underground tunnel to Kentish Town.

Kentish Town only appeared three moves ago. Can we still use this or no?
There's nothing that explicitly bans it. I agree that it's a bit recent to start re-using stations.
I apologise. Here's something else:

A London Overground parliamentary train non-stops this station (unlike most GOBLIN services, which terminate here) and continues to Willesden Junction.

Willesden Junction is the "northern" terminus of the West London Line, which links that station with Clapham Junction. One of the stations between the two is Kensington (Olympia).
