The Londonist website is not very impressed by the latest tube map addition.
All station captions at an angle except Haddenham & Thame Parkway. Why?
That old tube map again!
Chiltern sign at High Wycombe
Virgin signs at Warrington, the usual high quality the brand is associated with
First seen on the back of the Tate Boat leaflet and far too small on the 1/3 A4 leaflet to be readable. Actually produced by Thames Clippers, this version from their website. Another terrible attempt to emulate the tube map design. Pretty poor overall.
I would have thought that London Underground would know that the roundel is a symbol, not a logo (a logo is letters or words). And as for those two images, are they art?
Based on a previous ATOC map, but with added Europe. So the Midland goes into King's Cross does it? They've aded High Speed One but left the old channel tunnel route to Waterloo in.
Trade and business-to-business adverts often use a tube-map style illustration but the graphic is meaningless - why do two lines cross over?
They took my map, and because someone said it should have a geographic outline, they distorted my diagram to fit. A travesty.
A ship halfway up the Eiffel Tower? An airport inside a coffee pot handle? What does this mean to the financial community? Perhaps there's a secret message that the rest of us are missing.
