Yeah, that ON map could be quite handy if it was more accurate. The
metropolitan Kent section is all over the place


You're obsessed with this 'metropolitan Kent' notion aren't you?


I'm not the one making a special post about it, completely unrelated to the
thread.

You live in metropolitan *Greater London*, not Kent (metropolitan or
otherwise) - now, get over it!!


TfL don't have a problem describing this area as Kent:

http://www.tfl-ticketlocator.co.uk/geographical-map.asp

So why do you feel so threatened by it?

I think it's quite reasonable to refer to the Kent addresses within the
Greater London administrative area as "metropolitan Kent". Far more
descriptive than the bland and somewhat meaningless description of "south
London" which could mean just about anywhere south of the Thames.

I don't know why you're getting so upset about it anyway. If the people
around here want to describe themselves as in
London/Kent/Sussex/Surrey/Whatever, what do you care?

- Bexleyheath line greyed
out implying less than 4 trains an hour? Orpington greyed out

incorrectly.
Only 8 tph to Dartford? (I think Dartford is 12tph off-peak during the
day). Whoever drew that map didn't examine train services in Bexley and
Bromley very carefully...
