Default Critique my tube map

On a side note - are there any alternative geographical versions of the
london connections map? (a quick Google finds none)


Under construction:

This is currently missing the branches the West Anglia line, and
everything south of the river bar the SWML and the tubes. There are a few
oddities in there - mostly due to me going "Why on earth isn't there a
station there? I'll put one in!" as i was entering the data!

And, of course, it currently looks rubbish. I need to sort out the label
overlapping, draw in the actual lines (using a spline fit - i'm not going
for true accuracy yet), apply some colour, and then draw in the rivers and
major areas of uninhabited land.

I should mention that the tube data was lifted wholesale from CULG; i
really should have asked Clive permission before posting this. Apologies
Clive. I'll ask you properly, and add whatever attribution you like,
before i post it properly.
