Is Kilburn and Brondesbury the shortest distance between an Underground and an Overground station? Would both West Hampstead and Shepherds Bush considered the same station? They both are separate from each other as require tapping in and out to interchange between underground and overground and a shorter walk at street level. Both of these examples are closer than Kilburn and Brondesbury. I'd consider them both separate myself as they aren't housed in the same building (or even next to each other in the case of West Hampstead). Based on that Shepherd's Bush would be the closest AFAIK but West Hampstead would be a tiny bit further than Clapham High Street is to Clapham North

Can stations with the same name be considered different? If the answer is yes, then you can include Shepherd's Bush and West Hampstead, otherwise you have to exclude these stations.

A good point you make - for me, I'd consider stations the same only if they're in the same building or part of it via a direct interchange between the two. As I understand it, this doesn't apply to West Hampstead or Shepherd's Bush.

In this regard, is Canary Wharf (Jubilee) the only station where a station of the same name (Canary wharf DLR) is actually more distant than another station with a different name (Heron Quays)?

The Jubilee Line is the only one that crosses under the Thames multiple times on the same train, it doing so four times on a through service.

Pimlico is the only station on the Victoria line where you can't change for any other tube line or national rail.

Canary Wharf is the only station where the tube lines (ok one tube line one dlr line) have another station closer than their namesake
So heron quays dlr is closer to Canary Wharf jubilee than Canary Wharf dlr
