Still has that offensive advertising for a mobile phone company on it.


Where does it have the offensive advertising?


I believe James is grumpy that TfL have mentioned the only reason why
anyone might choose to go to North Greenwich as part of the station's
name on the map.


He should get over to a more recent thread and grump up about what they've
done to Gillespie Road!

But critically you can't prove it, which is all part of the genius of
the great Mr Chapman!

How he persuaded UERL to change the station's name from Gillespie Road
to Arsenal is hazy - whether the reasoning for this has been lost in
the mists of time, or was perhaps a little less than opaque in the
first place (cough cough, splutter splutter), is up for the reader to
decide ;-)

Was Mr Chapman not a 'good friend' of the Chairman or UERL, Lord
Ashfield ...?

It would be pretty mischievous to suggest that the 1930's aren't
called Golden Age for London's transport for nothing, so I won't.

Indeed. But the fundamental difference between the two cases is that
Gillespie Road station was actually re-named.

Heathrow Terminal 5m Langdon Park, Wood Lane and Shepherds Bush (LO)
appear as under construction.

Hatch End to Watford Junction are depicted as outside the zones (not
even in A-D). "Special Fares Apply"


Sorry if it's been remarked on before - but there is a new 'High
Frequency Services' map (dated Nov 2007) showing the London Overground
network, but not other stations under construction such as Terminal 5
or the various new stations around Shepherd's Bush. I saw one at
Stockwell (or perhaps Kennington) - not sure if they're in all
stations yet. Certainly the one on the TfL website hasn't been
updated, but then it took quite a while for them to get one on there
at all.

I've spotted these at Finsbury Park and Manor House. Not as
cluttered as the one accidentally uploaded to the website. They still
show zones A-D, I noticed, not the rumoured zones 1-9.

It would make sense not to show stations such at T5 and Shepherd's
Bush under construction if the map would be replaced again in January,
which was the rumoured date for the change to a move to zones 1-9.

There is another map of the London Overground. It's in Ken's free
newspaper The Londoner. But this one shows not only Shepherd's Bush
station but also Imperial Wharf on the WLL.

Does anyone know more about what zones 7-9 would cover? Just the tube
stations currently in A-D, or will there be moves to allow other
authorities to get some of their near-M25 rail stations into the
zones?
