Miaow.

A friend who has lived all her life in Haringey(?) and the City once
phoned me to come and meet her at Wimbledon, where the District Line
runs out before the place she needed to get to.

Ouch!

Piccadilly (from Manor House / Turnpike Ln) to Finsbury Park, Vic line
to Vauxhall, strange foreign zug to Wimbledon would have been the best
way to get that far, but one can of course come up with a variety of
suggestions to get further into terra (terror?) incognita, inc via the
strange trains from Victoria or keeping it simpler via a change to
Thameslink at KXSP.

You know all this and much much more of course Mr F, just taking
advantage of the opportunity to stretch my braincell.

The dilemma of how best to present such information is just that, to
concur with Paul's earlier ponderings. I'm not sure what would be best,
but what exists at the moment isn't it (the "London’s Rail & Tube
services" map - the combo-effort of TfL and ATOC and successor to the
London Connections map and TfL's separate variation thereof - rather
looks like and awkward graft on of suburban rail services onto the
familiar Tube map).
