Wow, Bank-Monument became complicated now but actually shows how the
different lines are located and how the main passageways goes between
them. Nice work I must say.




Hmm, You can walk from W&C at Bank to DLR without going up to the
central line. So I would vote to make Bank even more complex adding
another connector...

You seem to have forgotten Regents Park on the Bakerloo.

It is hidden because the station is closed for refurbishment :-)

Maybe needs a suitable symbol, rather than being completely missing.
Most other maps still show it.

Doh!
Now I see why Mr. Beck would want to make a diagram :-D

Well, it is closed anyway - you can use it. So why show it?

Well, mine doesn't ;-)

Might be worth showing how close it is to Great Portland Street, for
people who want to go to Regents Park.

So people can plan their future journeys for when it reopens, and you
don't have much to do, to update the map, when that happens.

In the mean time it will help them pick the closest *open* station.

I will show it on my planned future extensions map. In fact I already
have it (and yes, it is placed right next to the Great Portland
Street) - it is just hidden in public release of the map.

I will include it in the map of future extensions (which is yet to be
released).
The important feature of my map is that it only shows active parts of
the network - so, for example, in weekend disruptions map (like the
one currently available at http://www.fxfp.com/lib/tube/ for May 12
and 13) all "incapacitated" lines are hidden.
