March 2008 Pocket Map Sponsored by IKEA

Ikea Oyster wallets are also available, and have been for the last month, they haven't been withdrawn.....yet!

They are on display at Victoria.

Perhaps one of the racks at King's Cross still had the old ones in?

I got mine from Walthamstow Central this morning en route to Acton. Looks like TfL realised how confusing the map did as they've removed the ELL extensions as well as replace Rotherhithe now being replaced by the 381 bus service than a special one. Also Heathrow T5 bis shown as openning 27th March 2007 with the dotted line now a full line. The Victoria text boxes are changed to enclude more details as well as Tower gateway now shown closing June 2008 till Spring 2009.

Not yet.

Another error (like the missing NHG interchange symbol Jan08) has crept onto this map, the aircraft, Interchange with National Rail services to airport is missing from LIVERPOOL STREET.
I see that PINNER has lost it's wheelchair symbol, after it gained this on the January 2008 issue!
SHEPHERD'S BUSH (LO) station now "opens late2008".

I am trying to work out why the map has the RAF roundel devise on the cover? The caption says it's a commissioned piece by Mark Wallinger, do we assume he was paid to 'design' this 'art' ?!

So can someone post a pic of the map please ?

There has been a 2nd edition of the March 2008 Map and now an April 2008 dated Map!!!

6 issues in six months!!

The 2nd March edition adds the dagger devise to Monument and the District and Northern (but not Central!) keys now adds:- The interchange at Bank and Monument stations is closed while escalator replacement takes place. In some instances certain train services may not stop at Bank. Please check before you travel.
No other change from the earlier version-- so be careful if collecting!

The new April 2008 Map has the same 'R.A.F.' cover design.
- "opens 27 March 2008" has been removed from Terminal 5.
- Liverpool Street has gained back it's 'missing' aircraft symbol !
- The 'key' notes for the District (mentioned above) have been REMOVED!
- The Northern ones have been amended to read:- Due to escalator replacement work avoid interchange at Bank except with DLR services. This note is also added to the Central key.
- The DLR notes have been changed to show:- Tower Gateway station closed 28 June 2008 until spring 2009. Shouldn't this have also been on the January, February and the two March editions??
- A note in red now appears at the bottom of the key:- Major escalator work is taking place at Bank and Monument stations. Avoid interchange between lines wherever possible. Please check before you travel.

You're up to late Chris
I think you'll find it quite hard, unless driving to reach the Picc... I think there's a bus from Walthamstow that eventually reaches a Picc station. The 34 gets you to the Northern at High Barnet from Walthamstow.
Do you think it's only Under/Overground lines you shouldn't be interchanging. In which case from Chingford Ilford or Walthamstow, you can get onto no TfL rail services into Liverpool Street which gives you access to some of the missing ones...

Does anyone have a scan of the second March pocket map that they can send me ?

All good newsagents who can sell Oyster Cards i'd imagine.
