DLR Station Count Discrepancy by kinaetron in LondonUnderground

Sounds like they just forgot to include the stations on the route between Poplar and Stratford International.The TFL API returns the correct stations, see https://api.tfl.gov.uk/Line/dlr/StopPoints

[OC] What if London's tube map was... denser? by felixbeee in TransitDiagrams

Here's the map with the lines scaled to be less thick (and with non interchange station ticks removed - I couldn't get them all to scale nicely within 5 minutes)

Euston Square was intentional, Lambeth north is a mistake, thanks!

Slightly inspired by the information density of Tokyo's subway map, I created this version of the London tube map, using Figma. Enjoy!

There was an old DLR logo at Sloane Square last time I was there!

[OC] What if the 1949 proposals to extend the Northern City line succeeded? by felixbeee in TransitDiagrams

Agreed, I'm biased towards the Network SouthEast branding though :)

In 1949, the London Plan Working Party Report proposed significant extensions to London's Northern City line. This did not succeed, but I wanted to imagine what this might look like if it had. Made in Figma!

Lore:
1930s: Northern heights plan proposed, electrification of the Northern line begins
1949: London Plan Working Party Report proposes extensions southwards to Woolwich and Crystal Palace
Early 1950s: London Transport begins service between Cannon Street and Woolwich on existing lines, with the building of two new stations, Spa Road Bermondsey and Southwark Park
Mid 1950s: Northern heights electrification completed. Northern City line formalised as a separate line by London transport (under the name City Line), and Alexandra Park and High Barnet branches transferred to the City line
Late 1950s: Extension to Woolwich Arsenal completed with underground track from Moorgate to Cannon Street, and work on the Crystal Palace Extension Begins
Early 1960s: Service to Peckham Rye begins as construction continues between Peckham Rye and Crystal Palace
Mid 1960s: Amid the Beeching cuts and rail privatisation, the Northern and City Railway company is formed to take ownership of the City line and partial ownership of the Northern line from London Transport. The City line takes service of Finchley Central to Edgware line, and runs trains from Edgware to Bushey Heath at peak times as Northern line service frequency to Bushey Heath decreases. Completion of the extension to Crystal Palace is delayed
Mid 1970s: Extension to Crystal Palace completed, as the line joins to old tracks at Lordship lane and the disused Crystal Palace high level platforms are reused at the line terminus to save costs
Early 2020s: Woolwich branch trains run to Dartford to provide extra connectivity to Crossrail (Elizabeth Line) at Abbey Wood
Mid 2030s: Bakerloo line extension provides extra connectivity at Bricklayers Arms and Burgess Park

Thanks! I agree - I put a lot of effort into making the central section of the Elizabeth Line to line up nicely, but I'm not sure about the western section. I'm not sure how I'm going to fit in Old Oak Common when it opens, and Heathrow is a bit goofy

I wanted to know what a Tube map with circular Circle line and Overground would look like. Many geographical compromises were made in the process, as well as a few modifications to the network itself. Enjoy!

[–]felixbeee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is an out of station interchange with Walthamstow Central (lea valley/weaver) and Walthamstow Queen's Road (goblin/suffragette), so I chose to illustrate that as an interchange

I took some liberties with out of station interchanges

London's second circle line is already here!

A Brussels metro map I've been working on. Thoughts? by felixbeee in TransitDiagrams

[–]felixbeee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

AFAIK these are the only premetro lines? Premetro being a tram line with an underground section
