Seems a reasonably useful version given the space available - and it
clearly shows the difference between through services and branches etc.
(Which is more than can be said for that ridiculous circular idea
someone came up with that's often linked to...)
It is OK. *It is a pity we cannot have two or three fleets covering a
subset of Overground services. *These trains could then carry simpler
maps covering the are served.
Are the actual sub-classes split rigidly between the bits of the network
anyway? For example are there now some dual voltage units in regular use on
the East London?
Can dual voltage stock reaches the East London section, and its
branches to the south?
Yes :-

A map for the DC only sections, showing
interchanges to the rest of the Overground, would be much easier on
the eye. The real question is how easy do non enthusiasts find
reading the map.
Presumably the content and style of the maps is a TfL choice, not that
of the operator.
