The new line map is up for anyone interested. Managed to get a shot of it at Hammersmith today. www.flickr.com/photos/mackenzieblu/2952415586/Thing is tho should Wood Lane be an interchange seeing as the new Central Line map stays it interchanges with the Hammersmith & City? Also as the main network map has the station with steep free symbol, why isnt it on the line map? Although I am aware of the lifts currently out of service at the station. |

Is this map in the Old Johnston or New Johnston font ? Has there been update to any other line maps yet, I would expect that the northern and met lines will have a new one soon as they have new step free stations since the last update.
Any chance you can get pictures of them and post them too ? What about the H&C line map that goes above the seating area, do you have a pic of that, as that is slightly different from the one above the doors.

I wish they could be available at the TFL website. I miss having those links there.

C stock destination blinds still show "Hammersmith via Shepherds Bush". I don't suppose "via Shepherds Bush Market" would fit - how about "Hammersmith via Wood Lane"?

Hammersmith via Paddington may imply its a diverted District from Edgware Rd and will run via Earls Court.
I had a few Forest fans going to QPR on my train yesterday who stayed onto Goldhawk Road because they thought Shepherds Bush Market was a different station to the old Shepherds Bush.
Surely Hammersmith via Ladbroke Grove would be the most sensible as it is by far the busiest, especially on Saturdays when the market is on and the tourists need to get the right train. The locals all know what theyre doing anyway.

Did't the blinds read Hammersmith via Paddington in days gone by?

Central Line trains say "Ealing" without the Broadway, and I think D Stock says "Olympia" without the Kensington, so I don't think anyone's going to miss the "Market".

Is the "Ealing only" thing on the Central Line new? I haven't seen one, it's always been Ealing Broadway although I haven't used one for a couple of weeks now. Rich |

Hammersmith via Paddington may imply its a diverted District from Edgware Rd and will run via Earls Court. Once it tips out at Hammersmith, where would it reverse from westbound to eastbound? |

Hammersmith EB Fast platform. All in passenger. However I think the passengers would just be confused by the station name and not how the train would reverse. |

The R stock initially read 'Ealing' I'm sure too. The M and O stock plates definately showed HAMMERSMITH via Paddington. I think the C stock first introduced the 'via Shephard's Bush' blind.

Indeed, only later becoming Ealing Bdy. Incidentally, they had 'Hammersmith Metropolitan' aswell, to take it back on topic  |

Didn't the old red trains (forgotten what their series letter was - R?) have plates that said "High St" without the Kensington?
