Playing the game "stations"

We're doing a big street party tomorrow, and planning some games for the kids.

Waaay back when I was little, we used to play a game called Stations and now I can't properly remember the rules, and have tried google without success, does this sound familiar to anyone?

Everyone sits in a circle (on chairs or floor) and is named after a train station. i.e. Victoria, Euston, Picadilly etc etc. Then this where I get hazey. Someone shouts out two station names and the people who are give these names, I think have to run round the circle. E.g. Waterloo and Victoria get up and run round. Or sometimes someone shouts "All Change" and everyone gets up and runs round.

But then I can't remember what happens next!! And I don't want to start organising the game on Saturday only to find that I can't figure out what comes next. Was going to adapt to give everyone a World Cup team name.

I'm sure we played this for ages as a kid, but my mind is blank on the details and it does seem to be a rubbish game without any point at the moment.

Any clues or ideas appreciated.
Many thanks
