BTW, the new version pocket maps have the same *map made of paint*
graphic on the front, which I particularly dislike. I wish they'd got
Zandra Rhodes to do another one...


Isn't that the one on the old poster advertising the Tate Gallery? The
one that's the most popular poster in the LT Museum Shop

The best thing I've seen recently was the Week 52 - 1 TC and the worst
the leaflet-cover/poster about 24 hour service on New Year's Eve.
Judging on the number of people who asked me what time the trains were
going to stop that night, I'd say that it didn't get the message across
very well.

Clever Watford ;-)
Thought you'd all be fascinated by that bit of info....


Is that the large poster (no, not you, Kat!) or the folding pocket map?


I've only seen the folding pocket map so far but I imagine the station
maps would have been changed last night.


ISTR that the printers hadn't delivered the larger maps yet.

Appears that we got ours OK and all have been changed except the sticky
backed ones for the non-stopping boards...

Yes, we got our too! Why did the last bit start the Blue Peter theme tune in
my head?

Does her "A Zone" looks big in that?

The other change to the zones is that Crystal Palace has been moved from Zone
4 to the Zone 3/4 boundary.

So it has; I'd only seen the new version small tube maps but the map
with NR is at the back of the new Fares and Tickets.

Neither of these changes are yet shown on the maps on the TfL/Tube web
sites.

Doesn't surprise me; on New Year's Day it was saying that the Waterloo
and City was closed in one paragraph and running a Monday to Friday
timetable in the next....
(As were the corresponding leaflets BTW)
