Oh yes they have. New Tube Map, Overground, TfL Rail and Tube and Rail

There seem to be an awful lot of compromises (or bodges). For example
West Hampsted is shown as having a direct interchange between tube and
overground, whereas in fact you have to climb a long staircase, walk
along the road some way, cross the road, and then down another stairway,
passing two ticket barriers on the way.

I really don't understand the way that connections are depicted: it
seems totally unrelated to what passengers have to do in practice.

And TfL now have two stations called Bethnal Green with no connection
shown. Perhaps it didn't cause confusion when one was a "tube" station
and one a "railway" station, but now both are part of the tube map that
may not still apply.
