Also I made a special version of the map with tomorrow's disruptions
included (or excluded, to be exact):http://www.fxfp.com/get/tube/2007/05/w_001.png
Interesting; I've always been interested in maps. There are several
points I'd like to raise, but it's almost half pas midnight, so I'll
leave it until tomorrow.
In the meantime, if you haven't already seen them you might be
interested in two maps of the New York Subway. The official MTA one
is almost a graphical map, but not quite; Staten Island, which has no
Subway, but does have the Staten Island Railway, is much closer to
Manhattan than it should be for example. You can download it he
http://www.mta.info/nyct/maps/submap.htm What you see isn't the
proper map; click on the link near the top to download the PDF
version.
Some years ago, in the late '70s or early '80s I think, the MTA
published a Beck style diagramatic map, but the New Yorkers didn't
like it, and it was soon withdrawn. Somebody has done the reverse of
what you have done; he has made an unoffical diagram, contrasting with
the offical map. It's available he

He hasn't been able to bring himself to abandon the graphical layout
of the city to the extent that Beck did, and this has caused him some
obvious problems in certain areas.
