Don't like your Kennington - you imply there are separate bits of the
station for each branch, when really it's cross-platform. Ditto Mile
End, Oxford Circus, etc. I accept that you may have your reasons for
this, though.
I need to "invent" something special for the cross-platform interchanges
- otherwise they will look just like shared tracks. I'm thinking of
circle split in half or crossed circle.
Your new notation makes cross-platform interchange clearer, but still
looks pretty icky.
How about having cross- or same-platform interchange shown by having both
lines go through a single circle, rather than having two joined circles?
This might make the map look a bit simpler, too. Or are you reserving that
for shared tracks only?
How about having cross-platform circles touching, rather than joined by a
stem. A little bit like the Specsavers logo:

Or, indeed, the way it's done at South Ken on the normal tube map:

Incidentally, can i bring to people's attention the following science:
