Canonbury's now sorted, W&C to do - see my post on CIX (only just
done as I had a few problems posting to the topic - now sorted).

Franklin Jarrier has recently updated the London map with
some minor
changes and additions - now v1.1

http://carto.metro.free.fr/metro-london/

That is an outstanding map - though as a minor point of

order, Shoreditch station is listed as closing 22/12/2007 -
I'm pretty sure it closed in June/July 2006, while the rest
of the ELL closed on the date you've suggested? (anyone
confirm?)

Thanks for that, Wiki has the same date - I'll let Franklin

know.

Have you told him of the two points I raised elsewhere - The
Canonbury curve and missing W&C abandoned siding at Waterloo?

I've checked W&C and the lift siding still appears to be there (probably
as an engineers siding) - it's shown as no.8 siding on the map. Do you
know if the siding was actually removed when the lift was taken out of
use? I suspect that the siding (being below ground) was just converted
into a normal siding after the removal of the lift, even though the
Eurostar work changed the top level layout.
