The current TfL Rail map

shows interchange with the Goblin at Forest Gate, but the new Betty map

http://www.standard.co.uk/news/trans...-a3187111.html

doesn't. Accident or design?

TfL are peddling flannel, The Standard is telling the truth.
The distance between Forest Gate Station and Wanstead Park
Station is far greater than the distances at West Hampstead.

The new Elizabeth Line map was drawn by TfL.

So, what's the consensus on the new Crossrail Line's name, the Betty?

One extremely enthusiastic supporter.
Several more or less agitated objectors.
Rest don't care.

Leaving aside the fact they are both TfL maps, your point is irrelevant
- there's no rule that says different station interchanges shown on a
map have to be the same distance as between the West Hampsteads. I think
Forest Gate to Wanstead Park is perfectly reasonable to be shown as an
interchange.

I have used the Forest Gate interchange several times, the walk between stations is perfectly reasonable.

Isn't Brenda Line more accurate?

I'm hoping Unsweaty Betty will catch on.
