Yes indeed

5/ This station has had 3 names and 3 different sites, the most recent being on 96 and mainly to do with the MoD
And a not-particularly-well-known fact is that the second and third sites were both open concurrently for a short while as there were objections to the closure of "Filton" (or maybe just one objection, I can't remember) that weren't resolved by the time "Filton Abbey Wood" opened.

Right then...


(1) This station is west of Abbey Wood
