The distance from Battersea Power Station to Battersea Power Station Station is one of the longest from a station to - err - ... the place the station is named after.  See https://londonist.com/london/transport/which-tube-station-is-furthest-from-its-namesake

Sounds like a problem only for first-world metronistas, tbh.  I've visited Battersea Power Station Station, and the walk to Battersea Power Station is not a long one.  Could be better signposted through the little park area, though.  The Power Station looms whenever you look in it's direction, but how to get there can be a navigation puzzle
