Edinburgh Park and Gateway are both separated from “Edinburgh” (Waverley) by Haymarket. And, indeed, South Gyle in the case of Gateway. First trip out to South Gyle in 1985 had me thinking “why on earth are they building a station out here near enough in the middle of nowhere?” Now I know!

On a non-fruity theme is there another sequence in which two stations “named” after a single place have one named after another in between as well ie like Hackney Central, Homerton, Hackney Wick?

Bristol Temple Meads and Parkway have 4 between them.
