[edit] Waterloo & City

The article states that this line is indicated with a double stripe, but surely that is not the case? Salopian (talk) 19:16, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

I would tend to agree. It went in with this edit, which to my mind introduces a lot of unnecessary detail, and possible original research; it's not referenced - the only referenced items in that table are the colour values. --Redrose64 (talk) 19:41, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

1) Sorry folks, just a 'cut & paste' error that has now been corrected.
2) How would you like me to reference the information? The specific tube map where each change first appeared?
Useddenim (talk) 12:48, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

Don't reference the specific maps directly, those are primary sources. Locate a secondary reliable source - say a book which discusses changes to Underground diagrams - and reference that. --Redrose64 (talk) 13:33, 20 August 2010 (UTC)

[edit] External links

Some links should be deleted (404):

London quickmap mapmovies - all kinds of variations on tube maps
Trivia, history and facts on the London Underground Tube map contains more history on the tube map plus alternative designs of the map from Dr Who Conventions, and Simon Patterson's The Great Bear

And maybe this one added (?):

Geographically accurate and detailled map of London Transports

[edit] Tube map update, December 2011

Could we replace the tube map on this page with the updated December 2011 version? --Klltr (talk) 07:18, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Apart from the addition of the Emirates Air Line (cable car), which is still under construction, is it much different from the previous version? --Redrose64 (talk) 17:20, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
