Interesting addition to Google, it seems to ignore mainline railways.

.... which is ironic, as the map often ignores Underground lines when
they're above ground, e.g. the District/Piccadilly west of Hammersmith,
but shows mainline railways including those in tunnel. I've had several
attempts to persuade Tele-Atlas to show above-ground Underground lines,
without success so far.
