Can anyone tell me the *correct* HEX colour codes - if there are
any defined - for each LU line that could used in HTML ?

Note for uk.railway comedians - HEX here means hexadecimal *not*

should have what you need.

Do the line colours have official names? I'm captain of my local pub
quiz team and we sometimes get asked what colour is such-and-such a
line, but then we get into silly arguments e.g.is the Central Line
red, or orange? Red presumably, because it's the same as 'corporate
red'. But what about the Waterloo & City Line - turquoise, or pale
green?

The names are given on page 12 of the 201-page London Underground signs
manual at
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/corporate/...al_Dec2003.pdf
as follows:

Central: red
Victoria: light blue
District: green
Circle: yellow
Metropolitan: magenta
Bakerloo: brown
East London: orange
Hammersmith & City: pink
Northern: black
Piccadilly: dark blue
Waterloo & City: turquoise
Jubilee: light grey

(The names above are all prefixed by Underground, thus "Underground
light blue" for the Victoria line.)
