The East London line through Whitechapel and the line through Cambridge
Heath are the same colour and almost co-linear, so the eye follows them
as a single line

My eye isn't tricked like that, and they *are* both the Overground,
after all.

three lines of nearly the same colour crossing over the same spot just
south of Selhurst is a complete disaster.

Yes, the line to East Croydon should cross over between to two
Streathams, for better clarity.

I particularly like the dumbbell at Charing Cross, emphasising the
Bakerloo station's separation (used to be Trafalgar Square of course).

But they've omitted the link from Waterloo East to Southwark, and the
south-of-the-river entrance to Blackfriars/Thameslink.

And I think the Bakerloo at Paddington should also be a dumbbell.

It will have its own link to the Crossrail station soon.
