Guess the subway map
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...r-subway-maps/ I got 10/10, but there was a bit of guessing. I would have got 6/10 without looking at the 4 options. |

I would have got 6/10 without looking at the 4 options. I got 8/10 (should we really count no7) several of them because of the coastline they were butting up to. How many of the cities have you visited though, again it's 8/10 for me. Many more maps he http://www.noupe.com/inspiration/sho...erground-maps- design-around-the-world.html -- Roland Perry |

I got 9/10 on both the Washington Post quiz and the Guardian one: http://www.theguardian.com/cities/20...ate-metro-maps But I got 10/10 for identifying the station from the satellite photo: http://www.theguardian.com/cities/20...atellite-image -- Jeremy Double |

I got 8 out of 12, but I only actually knew 4 of them, the other 4 were just lucky guesses tim -- Jeremy Double |

Of these, 4 were educated guesses (the dome in the bottom right of the Florence picture was a good clue to question 4), I've travelled through Liege to get from Germany to Brussels, and I've used the other 7 stations. -- Jeremy Double |

Now there's a Ringbahn for you. :-) Sam -- The University of Edinburgh is a charitable body, registered in Scotland, with registration number SC005336. |
