Street Map showing tube lines?
Hi,
Are there any maps anywhere which show where the tube lines (not just the stations) are in relation to the streets. I have a line under my house, and I'd like to figure out exactly what it is. Cheers, Fred. |

A bus map of your area, (NOT a Spider Map) downloadable from the TfL website, will show railway and Underground lines in relation to roads which are bus routes. You shuld be able to work out the finer details. -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. |

So it gives a general indication, much of the time, but there very many detailed "errors". For example, the City branch of the Northern line is completely wrong at Euston. -- Roland Perry |

I *think* the bus maps have this one about right, but am prepared to be corrected. -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. |

Unfortunately, the "Central" map (which is the one that would include Euston) doesn't have the underground lines on it. Meanwhile, the various 'outer' maps don't show the detail inside the "Central" area. Of course, there aren't very many interesting below surface lines outside the "Central" zone. However, they have the approaches to Ealing Broadway reasonably OK (but that's overground, anyway, so visible on normal maps). -- Roland Perry |

Yes, please. My email address is a real one.
Thanks to Helen, I've figured out I'm 80-100 yards from the Victoria line. It surprises me I can hear it as if it's right under my lounge. Cheers, Fred. |

Let me know if you want it; all Tube lines are shown in their
traditional colours. Yes, please. My email address is a real one. Cheers, Fred. |

Mine does (it's a bit old, map dated 3/3/04, so probably has been superceded) I can email it to anyone who wants it. It shows the Bank branch of the Northern Line running between Albany Street and Hampstead Road, then swinging east, north of Euston Road, into Euston. Chx branch is shown running immediately west of Eversholt Street into Euston. It seems reasonably accurate, if diagrammatic to me. Let me know if you want it; all Tube lines are shown in their traditional colours. The Central London Night map I have does not show these details. (It is older, dated 18/3/03 but downloaded last May) -- Helen D. Vecht: Edgware. |
