Hi all,
New book on sale in the LT Museum shop in Covent Garden. It's GBP10, but is a fairly slim volume. It includes a tube map for each ten year period, all drawn in the same modern style, and text giving all (or most?) changes in that decade. In the back is a future Underground map, which is interesting, but contains a major blunder, which I will leave for other people to find as an exercise. -- John Rowland - Spamtrapped Transport Plans for the London Area, updated 2001 http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Acro...69/tpftla.html A man's vehicle is a symbol of his manhood. That's why my vehicle's the Piccadilly Line - It's the size of a county and it comes every two and a half minutes |

Rob. rob at robertwoolley dot co dot uk No showing Crossrail at all, by the time it gets built it'll be bloody angry rail. BTS |

But line 1 only goes from Heathrow Terminal 5 to Stratford and Isle of Dogs (situated between Devons Road and All Saints). Crossrail 2 has both Chelsea Harbour and Clapham Junction options, with both sections meeting at East Putney. Thameslink is included, with the spur to Moorgate. There is no DLR extension to City Airport of North Woolwich. The line from Stratford to North Woolwich is still classed as National Rail. Park Royal is still just Piccadilly Line. Metropolitan Line goes to Watford Junction via Croxley (trains from Amersham and Moor Park). Victoria Line does not proceed to Northumberland Park. The East London Line extension is included but terminates at Finsbury Park and Highbury & Islington in the north, and Wimbledon, Crystal Palace, West Croydon, and New Cross in the south. I believe the choice is now Clapham Junction rather than Wimbledon. There are other potential extensions or changes missing but these I think are still speculative. |

Well that is where the Isle of Dogs station is located on the map. No idea why its there. |
