Marylebone Station is one of four stations on the Monopoly board. It's an odd choice as it was probably the smallest of the London termini at the time the board was devised.
The name Marylebone is a contraction of the name of a church in the area "St Mary at the Bourne". The "bourne" (an old word for stream) in this case being Tyburn, a small river that flowed (and it still does flow, through underground culverts) through the area.
