I realise more and more how seriously people can take this-mapping out every interchange? Impressive!

I'd be interested to see a couple of examples of geoff's maps-could you show us a couple that won't give much away? (or even better ones that do?)

Assuming they are digitised affairs, or are they all handrawn?

At all the stations that have emergency staircases, they all have signs that say 'X steps'. I've made a note of that 'X' value.

Ok... i could put up King's Cross or something good. Something like Theydon Bois obviously isn't that interesting ... one moment please whilst I go and upload to a suitable URL!

Ok, go and have a butchers at:

Which nicely gives away the whole station and carriage positions for you! This is not a 'polished' complete version, btw - but it's enough to give you the idea.

Where it's in Orange at the bottom - that show the C stock as apposed to the regular blue colour, whcih for that line represents the A stock.

Oh yes.. getting carriage/door positions involves getting BOTH of them for lines where two types of stock are used! Something else the Way Out map completely fails to do, and therefore can be completely wrong.

Be aware that your internet browser might 'shrink' the image, and you'll need to do whatever you need to due to expand it to its full size.

Thats very impressive, a book with that sort of information would be invaluable to tube challengers.
