My great great grandfather was Henry Cole, brother of John Cole. Henry married Julia Tucker, which implies that two brothers married two sisters.
Your great great grandfather was latterly station master at Bethnal Green station. I have a book which has been handed down entitled "Our Iron Roads". This was bought by my great grandfather John Traffells Cole, in his memory.
You probably know that your great great grandfather was widowed early in his life, and for that reason his sister Sarah, and latterly his sister Harriet, both kept house for him. Coles and Tuckers were resident in the Gosport area for many years, and both families worshipped at Holy Trinity in the town.
I hope the abovementioned information is of some use to you.
