Do you know anything about developmental psychology? Or trauma? Or just the normal formation of memory in general? It's perfectly feasible (if not likely) that they have muddled up the locations and exact dates of some of these incidents, because no one has a perfect recollection of their childhood in detail. E.g. The one about the train station, he's likely just mixing up his memory of an incident of abuse with another memory of being there at at later date.

Here's even a personal example;

I distinctly, clearly, in vivid detail remember being in the kitchen of my last house when I got home from work and my wife told me that my mum had died. I remember it in detail, down to the counter I was leaning against, the lighting, everything. Except I moved out of that house in January 2014, and my mum died in March 2014. The memory itls literally impossible and it must have been the kitchen of my current house; but I don't remember it that way no matter how hard I try.
