![]() It's green, but when folded it's much smaller and thicker than the previous editions, having more folds than before. Exeter has reappeared on the map after about 10 years of absence, and Great Malvern and Bristol appear for the first time. My favourite change is that Norfolk is now fully covered. I always thought a map that showed the whole coast from Weymouth to Felixstowe and also showed Kings Lynn without showing the Norfolk coast was stupid. Of course, now that it reaches Bristol I'm annoyed that it doesn't show Severn Beach. And it shows Bristol and Taunton but not the line joining them. Seems like some curious decisions have been made. And don't get me started on how they've shown the Henley and Marlow branches on the London side! Who pays for the map? It seems to be National Rail, but isn't the rest of the country annoyed that no maps of their area are produced? -- Basil Jet recently enjoyed listening to Minutemen - 1983 - What Makes A Man Start Fires |

![]() I've just realised it shows Worcestershire Parkway as open, which AFAIK is not yet true. -- Basil Jet recently enjoyed listening to Minutemen - 1983 - What Makes A Man Start Fires |

2020, Basil Jet remarked: I've just realised it shows Worcestershire Parkway as open, which AFAIK is not yet true. on 14th Dec I posted: "26th Jan is the date the station currently starts appearing in nationalrail OJP results". But I can't see any now. Although Paddington-bound trains on RTT are shown as "Service stop unadvertised" today. -- Roland Perry |

Isn't that because it was effectively a Network South East map and that area wasn't in NSE or served directly from an NSE terminus? -- Clive D.W. Feather |
